Inference Data Scientists run A/B tests, do root-cause analysis, and conduct experiments. They use Python, SQL, and R to analyze data.

Why Principles of Data Literacy? This no-code course introduces the foundational how’s and why’s of data. How do statistics help us make conclusions from data? Why is good design critical for communicating data stories through data viz? What are the different kinds of analysis we can perform on a dataset? This course will help you feel empowered to answer these questions (and more!) and work with data with confidence. You will learn how to evaluate data quality, interpret statistical conclusions, create and read data visualizations, and analyze data responsibly.

We live in a data-driven world: people search through data to find insights to inform strategy, marketing, operations, and a plethora of other categories. There are a ton of businesses that use large, relational databases, which makes a basic understanding of SQL a great employable skill not only for data scientists, but for almost everyone.

In this course, you'll learn how to communicate with relational databases through SQL. You'll learn—and practice with 4 projects—how to manipulate data and build queries that communicate with more than one table.

This course is dedicated to programmers who are already familiar with the world of programming and are looking to become acquainted with the R programming language. We designed this course to be a series of short, interactive articles that you can skim, dive into, or even skip. We did this so that you can use this course to both learn R and to check as a reference guide.

Learn the basic syntax, how to work with data structures, visualizations, and more.

You hear it all the time: ""correlation is not causation."" By taking this course, you'll find out what causation really is. Find out why things happen using causal methods, such as matching and weighting, instrumental variables, and difference in differences.


In this course, you will learn the conceptual foundations for determining causal inference and how to work with data to understand why things happen. In addition to the basic foundations, you will learn how to isolate variables and apply different techniques to deal with unruly datasets and interpret the results of your analysis.
