Course Overview

The Probability and Statistics IV: Confidence Intervals and Hypothesis tests certification course is supported by GTx and comprises the two most important methodologies used in Statistics: confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. This intermediate course is easy to learn and interesting.

By pursuing this probability and Statistics IV: Confidence Intervals and Hypothesis tests online course, candidates can solve basic probabilistic equations and can use them in their daily lives. Hypothesis testing allows them to either support, or oppose the proposed hypothesis and its validity, including the strength of the classroom, or test results of drugs. With these results, technical errors can be rectified by applying formulas. 

In this Probability and Statistics IV: Confidence Intervals and Hypothesis tests program, the candidates will probability distributions, design tests, interpret the hypothesis, and calculate confidence intervals for different probability parameters. An official certificate signed by the instructor with the institute’s logo will be issued after completion of the course. Applicants can add this certificate to their CV and submit it directly on platforms like LinkedIn, Upwork, and Fiver, for job applications. The learners can enrol in the programme either by paying the fee (verified) or free cost. In the free mode, the learners can access the programme for a limited period whereas in the paid mode, the learners will have unlimited access and a certificate of completion.
