Rapidly improve Data Literacy
across your organisation
Altis has created a comprehensive and easy-to-follow Data Literacy training course to help your staff make better data-driven decisions.
Participants of our Data Literacy training course will learn the fundamentals of ‘speaking data’, giving them greater confidence to manage and present data in their work. This includes practical data analysis skills, covering descriptive, exploratory, predictive, inferential, and prescriptive techniques, to transform raw data into actionable business recommendations.
This popular introductory course can be delivered onsite or remotely by a team of highly-skilled industry consultants.
Are you ready to improve your Data Literacy and become a data-driven organisation?
While data may already be a priority in your organisation, this doesn’t always mean your team has the confidence to use data regularly and effectively in their decision making. Improved Data Literacy has been shown to increase decision making performance, providing a competitive edge to your business.
Though data-driven businesses try to hire data-literate staff, silos can arise where they become confined to IT and operational reporting. As departments become more interdependent, data-literate staff must be present throughout the entire decision-making chain to minimise risk and maximise decision quality.
It’s more important than ever that your organisation has the ability to read, work with, analyse, and argue constructively with data to maintain a competitive advantage across your industry.
Our Data Literacy program will have your organisation speaking the same language and be fully data-literate. We cover the fundamentals of ‘speaking data’, right through to advanced statistical concepts such as percentiles, means and correlations to treating outliers, ‘de-averaging’ and handling seasonal effects.
