Data Analysis Course

Data is short hand for “information,” and whether you are collecting, reviewing, and/or analyzing data this process has always been part of program, project or business operations. Every program activity requires many pieces of information and these involve the collection of and use of substantial amounts of data. For international development programs, the use of data becomes even more crucial, as essential information must be managed within relatively short program seasons. As new requirements are added and new program initiatives launched, programs are increasingly expected to use data in meaningful ways. It is therefore incumbent on program staff to develop their expertise in working with data – from collection, reporting to analysis.
