Using Analytics in Business
A Note About Discussions
Many discussions in this course are different from those in other MBA courses. In this course, some discussions offer opportunities to practice the skills required to complete assignments successfully. This provides a way for learners with no background in analytics to get feedback and experience before submitting an assignment for grading. Those of you who have worked with analytics will be able to share your knowledge and experience with your peers and demonstrate qualities of whole-person leadership.
