Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate

Google data analytics is a well-made certification where you’ll learn:

  • What does it mean to be a business analyst (BA)
  • What are the tools and skillset that you might need if you want to pursue a career as a BA

Overall it’s a good course with great material, food for thought about BA, and a good introduction to the BA tools (Tableau, Excel, SQL, R…). For my taste and current experience, it’s was a bit too qualitative.

R programming

If you want to learn how to program in R and how to use it for data analysis I strongly recommend this course R programming

If you’d like a more interactive platform I’d advice DataCamp.

Below an introduction about R and DataCamp:

By the way DataCamp is a really cool platform
