Basic Statistics Courses
Basic Statistics courses can help you learn data collection methods, descriptive statistics, probability distributions, and hypothesis testing. You can build skills in interpreting data sets, conducting surveys, and performing regression analysis. Many courses introduce tools like Excel, R, and Python, that support analyzing data and visualizing results. By applying these skills and tools, you can effectively communicate findings and make informed decisions based on statistical evidence.
