What this is
Statistics for people who have to decide things, not sit an exam. Every concept taught against a real business decision. The course covers: What the question really is; Describing data; Visual honesty; Variation; Sampling; Uncertainty; Comparing groups; Effect size; Relationships; Causation; Experiments; Communicating results.
It is a self-paced course of written lessons and exercises. It does not include live instruction, one-to-one coaching or individual feedback on your work, and it cannot promise any particular job, income, ranking, certification or business result — what you get out of it depends on your own situation and the practice you put in.
What you will be able to do
- A vague business question rewritten as a measurable one
- A confidence interval around a number you currently report as exact
- A comparison test you can interpret in plain language
- An effect size that tells you whether to act
- An A/B test designed before launch, not after
