What you will gain after the course

  • You can understand and explain the concepts of data and data literacy.

  • Can define data-driven problems and explain data analysis techniques for each type of data.

  • Can use software for data analysis appropriately for its intended purpose.

  • You can experience and carry out data analysis tasks.


Do you stop at just reading data in Excel?

Don’t stop at organizing data,
you can uncover the meaning of data only by defining problems and connecting everything from preprocessing to analysis and visualization. Learn the fundamentals of data literacy and the actual analysis process using Excel.


Understand the concepts of data and data literacy, and define the problems to be solved using data yourself.

Experience the process of preprocessing data in Excel and organizing it into a format suitable for analysis.

Find meaning in data through summary analysis, exploratory analysis, predictive analysis, and visualization.

It is natural to find data challenging.
From basic concepts to hands-on analysis tasks, you can build your data skills at your own pace.


Learn everything from data concepts and Excel preprocessing to
summary, exploratory, and predictive analysis, as well as visualization.

Even beginners who only vaguely worked with tables
grow into analysts who define and explain problems with data.

By the end of this course, you will be able to


You can turn vague numbers into questions to analyze.

  • You will understand the meaning of data and data literacy, and learn how to define problems you encounter at work based on clear criteria. Rather than simply listing numbers such as sales or customer counts, you will develop the habit of organizing for yourself what needs to be checked.


✔️

Move beyond simply looking at data and
learn how to analyze it yourself using Excel.

Practice reading data
and turning it into a problem

After understanding the meaning of data and data literacy, you will learn how to define problems based on data and select appropriate analysis methods for each type. From preprocessing using Excel to summary, exploratory, and predictive analysis and visualization, you will learn the analytical process as one connected workflow.

Turning Excel tables into analytical results
Hands-on practice

After organizing and preprocessing data in Excel, you will create summary tables and exploratory results while carrying out actual analysis tasks. You will compare the purposes of analytical software tools and envision deliverables for use in work or academic settings through examples of data literacy assignments.

Practice materials for each analysis stage and
tool usage guidance

The course is structured around Excel to guide you through data preprocessing and analysis procedures, allowing you to examine the workflows needed for summarization, exploration, prediction, and visualization step by step. You will also explore data analysis software tools and assignment examples together, enabling even beginners to establish criteria for applying them to their own data.
