Business Applications Certification Overview
What is data, where does it come from, how is it stored and what is it used for? Data touches every part of our lives and yet we often do not know it is there, what the data is, where it came from, or how we use it.
This course is designed to provide you with an essential understanding of data from generation to use. It is a first step towards increasing data awareness and confidence. The course is a starting point for data literacy learning and beyond.
Alternatively, if you wish to gain a deeper fundamental understanding of the role data can play, data structures, data quality and how you can use data to produce analysis to turn data into information and create a data story, then you may find the QADLFUND - Fundamentals of Data Literacy course is more suitable.
