CompTIA Data+: Data Acquisition & Cleansing
Price on Request
2 hour 35 minutes
Data, when coming in from a source en masse, is rarely structured the way that data analysts would like it to be. When you consider the multitude of sources that data comes from, it would be highly unrealistic to assume that you could take a tranche of data and begin working with it without some sort of processing to make it more useful. In this course, you will explore data acquisition and cleansing, beginning with data integration and data integration tools, focusing on the roles and characteristics of the extract, transform, load (ETL) and extract, load, transform (ELT) processes. Then you will examine tools and methods such as delta load and data acquisition application programming interfaces (APIs). Next, you will learn how to clean datasets and investigate common data issues, including data redundancy, missing values, non-parametric data, and outliers. Finally, you will take a look at key characteristics of data type validation. This course can be used to prepare for CompTIA Data+ (DA0-001) exam.

CompTIA Data+: Data Visualization Dashboards
Price on Request
1 hour 10 minutes
Data visualization prepares data for presentation to make it easier for non-data analysts to understand what the data is saying. Often, non-data analysts can't see relationships in data without visual aids, but effective data presentation allows them to change parameters and understand and view the data in a similar manner to a data scientist. In this course, explore the purpose and key considerations for data visualization dashboards in data analytics, dashboard utilization best practices, and elements of dashboard development. Next, learn about dashboard delivery and how to create a dashboard. Finally, discover how to utilize saved searches, implement filters, optimize dashboards, and use access permissions.

CompTIA Data+: Inferential Statistical Methods
Price on Request
1 hour 30 minutes
Unlike descriptive statistics, which describe characteristics of datasets, inferential statistics are used to make inferences or predictions about data. Information not readily evident by analyzing datasets can be gleaned by talented data analysts in order to form conclusions, and while it may sound like educated guessing, descriptive statistics are far more sophisticated than simply guessing. In this course, you will explore inferential statistical methods, identifying the purpose of inferential statistics and comparing them to descriptive statistics. Then you will investigate and perform inferential statistical methods such as t-tests, z-score, p-values, and chi-square.
