Decision Making with Analytics

In this 2-day course, participants will utilize Microsoft Excel to have a deep understanding of the decision-making process using data analytics.

Through hands-on examples participants will learn using Microsoft Excel how to handle large datasets and extract useful information that will help organizations make sound decisions backed up by data.

With the amount of data collected by organization or dedicated services, the decision-making process is not an art anymore neither it will depend entirely on the experience and the ‘gut feeling’ of the decision maker. Although experience is still important, decision makers must hire the people who are equipped with the tools to process the data and be able to understand the story behind the data. Those people must build the communication skills to deliver the story and support it by the evidence that their tools produced for them.

Reading data trends whether for business, investment, or even for sports is becoming an essential skill for every employee or business owner. Industry is looking for people who understand data and know how to deal with it. In this course participants will learn how to read data and be able to uncover the story behind the data.
