This is a self-paced course so you can start and stop as needed and take the course all at once or in small increments. This course has over 13hrs of video content. Completion time will vary as students will be performing homework and other exercises during the course. Watching and performing the lessons for ~ 10hr/wk may take about 6 weeks to complete to ensure that you understand the material.

Will I need any prior knowledge or experience in data analytics?

No. Prior knowledge is not required for this course. You should have basic computer skills such as installing software.

What kind of support is available to me while taking this course

What certification will I receive upon completion of this course?

You will receive a certificate of completion for the Analytics for Beginners course from Analytics Mentor. This is an educational item that you can add to your resume potentially to improve your chances of obtaining a job in the field of analytics.

How should I take this course?

First, I recommend that you take a course from the course package and simply watch it from start to finish. Don't try to do the demo work or feverishly take notes. Just watch, listen, learn, and get the 10,000ft view of what we're working on.

I've seen people try to "do" at the same time that they are trying to learn new material, and it tends to reduce understanding and applied knowledge.

Second, after you watch the course, go back a second time and perform the exercises. This time, watch the course module, pause when we get to the lesson work. Try to complete the lesson without the video. This will give you more of those "ah-ha" moments of success!  You can always click the play button if you get stuck.
