Overview

Statistics Essentials

Understand the basics of Statistics

Statistics Fundamentals is a program designed to provide a base knowledge of post-secondary level statistics. This program is extremely beneficial for individuals who require refresher in statistics or for those that never had a chance to take a post-secondary university statistics class.

This class can also be a very effective review tool for students that are interested in getting the best base for starting a post-secondary statistics course. With many of the basics in statistics covered throughout the 12 module course, you can enjoy having an advanced knowledge of statistics before the course takes place. Using the modules in combination with your current learning tasks will help you to achieve higher grades as well as with studying for any type of lab or exam scenario.

Through 12 different modules the course will explain some of the basics of statistics and where they can be applied in business, research and more. From the base introduction you’ll learn more about the world of statistics as a whole and how it can be applied to many different types of situations. Learn more about data as a whole and how it can be managed as well as the base of probability.

Statistics fundamentals can become extremely helpful for data management within a business as well as predictability and planning within any type of business. In both funding analysis as well as future planning, the ability to manipulate mass amounts of data can help to predict behaviour within an organization.

Statistics fundamentals can also be extremely helpful for research purposes. If you are currently working in a research field and you are interested in getting more out of your data management capabilities, this course can help to prepare you to take on any research task. Pull data from a study with ease, create charting and prepare probability reports for the future of the data that you gather. These are the types of skills that you can easily put into use after taking this 12-module program.

This course includes both a practical study of some of the top elements of statistics as well as the applications for which the statistical principles can be used for business, research, life and more.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
