Course Overview

Linear Regression and Modeling certification is a 4 weeks course that only takes 10 hours in total from a candidate. This course is a collaborative effort between Duke University, and Coursera. The main aim that both these platforms have is to introduce both linear regression models- simple and multiple regression. With these models, one can judge a relationship between the different variable data points in a data set.

Linear Regression and Modeling training will help with the basics of linear regression that is used with data examples for learning, examining, and ultimately utilizing these, to sum up, the relationship between variables that are multiple. An example of such a case is that the training will let the students find out the relationships between how attractive a professor is, and on what parameters does he or she evaluate students. This relationship is usually examined by using statistical software like R, and RStudio which is free of cost.
