The course is part of the Data Analytics certificate program. Students in the program are adult learners with a post-secondary degree/diploma in computer science, engineering, business, etc. This course introduces descriptive statistics, basic inferential statistics, linear regression, and probability concepts and calculations. Practical application activities in the course focus on how statistical methods are used in the analysis of data. Common statistical and programming tools will be introduced and employed in order to demonstrate how significant and insightful information is collected, used, and applied to problem-solving processes.

This course is part of the Data Analytics certificate program. Students in the program are adult learners with a post-secondary degree/diploma in computer science, engineering, business, etc. The students learn how to perform exploration of data in order to discover meaningful information to solve problems, and will allow for the application of analytics life cycle in the context of planning to solve a business problem. Emphasis is placed on framing the problem, proposing an analytics solution, communicating with stakeholders, and establishing an analytics-focused project plan. Common data visualization tools and techniques are explored and used as students learn best practices for the presentation and communication of analytical solutions and insights.

This course is part of the Data Analytics certificate program. Students in the program are adult learners with a post-secondary degree/diploma in computer science, engineering, business, etc. This course offers an introduction to data science and machine learning paving the way for students to learn data analytics principles. In particular, this course begins with a brief history of data analytics and data science, followed by regression analysis, regression and classification trees, and ends with introductions to K-means clustering, principal component analysis (PCA). Each lecture has associated with it a practical lab session in which students will put "theory into practice" offering students a hands-on approach to learning the material.

This course is part of the Data Analytics certificate program. Students in the program are adult learners with a post-secondary degree/diploma in computer science, engineering, business, etc. This course explores the importance of managing data as an enterprise asset and the processes and components required in terms of the acquisition, storage, sharing, validation and accessibility of data for addressing business problems. An examination of Database Management Systems, database architectures (structured and non-structured) the differences between OLTP (Online transaction processing) OLAP (online analytical processing) as well as the administrative processes (Data Governance) that guide the data lifecycle will be a focus.
