This R Programming course in Singapore covers the concept of Business Analytics and its strategic importance to any organization. You will understand how cutting-edge businesses use data to optimize marketing, maximize revenue, make operations efficient, and make hiring and management decisions so that you can apply these strategies to your own company or business.

Through the data analytics specialist training, participants will learn how to address business needs through the use of analytics, how some organizations have done it and what has been done to achieve them.

Therefore, a data analytics professional generally has a trade-off between these two components and you can switch between roles that have different proportions of the two components. The value which you create for yourself is a positively correlated function of business understanding and analytics.
