The Forecasting and predictive Analytics Certificate will teach you fundamental techniques used for predictive analytics: regression, classification, clustering, optimization , and simulation. Beginning with basic models for revealing and establishing relationships, you will learn to apply increasingly sophisticated modeling techniques for practical data analysis. You will also learn to model commonly encountered problems, determine the fit and usefulness for prediction of your models, and apply the models to typical business problems. As you develop your understanding of applied predictive analytics, you’ll learn how to perform basic forecasting using time-based data to predict future values from a model. You will also learn how to model and calculate scenarios based on distance and space. You will get practice with classification, including naïve Bayesian classification; create basic decision trees; and use various techniques for clustering and linear optimization to solve common business problems; as well as learn techniques for assessing the effectiveness of your solutions. This is an interactive learning program that includes bonus hands-on learning labs that will expose you to the tools needed to implement an analytics practice in a practical way and that will equip you to deploy those tools as needed within your organization. You will practice using various technologies for preparing, analyzing, and managing data sets in the real world. *CPE credit is not awarded for time spent on learning labs, and completing the learning labs is not a requirement for earning the certificate. Digital Badge: On completion of this certificate you will receive a digital badge to share with your online professional network, which is available as a downloadable PDF certificate suitable for printing and framing. It is recommended that you complete the Data Analytics Modeling Certificate, or ensure that you have equivalent knowledge and skills, before starting the Forecasting and Predictive Analytics Certificate.
