Overview

Graduate Certificate in Predictive Analytics

To be successful in business today, you need to be proactive, forward-thinking, and able to anticipate outcomes and behaviours based on the data you collect.

Predictive analytics is an area of statistics that deals with extracting information from data and using it to predict trends and behaviour patterns. 

If you have a computer science, programming, mathematics, or statistics background and enjoy working with statistical data, this program at Conestoga College is the one for you. 

In this Ontario College Graduate Certificate in Predictive Analytics, you will learn about statistical applications for data analysis, data modelling practices, and big data analytical techniques. 

Through individual and group activities and case studies, you will use predictive modelling and analytical techniques to combine the management, information technology, and business modelling processes to predict future trends. 

Businesses and industries can use the patterns found in the data to identify risks and opportunities for future decisions and effectively interpret data for their benefit.
