Data is a group of facts that can take many different forms, such as numbers, pictures, words, videos, observations, and more. We use and create data every day, like when we stream a show or song or post on social media.
Data analytics is the collection, transformation, and organization of these facts to draw conclusions, make predictions, and drive informed decision-making.
A data analyst prepares, processes, and analyzes data to help inform business decisions. Data analysts create visualizations to share their findings with stakeholders and provide recommendations driven by data.
A data analyst learns how to work with data to solve problems. Data analyst skills include the ability to…
- Collect, clean, and organize data for analysis
- Conduct data analysis and calculations
- Visualize and present data findings
- Work with spreadsheets, programming languages, and data visualization platforms
A data analyst works with data to solve business problems using tools like SQL, R or other programming languages, data visualization software, and statistical analysis. A data scientist uses more advanced data techniques to make predictions about the future. They may come up with the questions their team should be asking and determine how to use data to answer them.
Companies must continually adjust their products, services, tools, and business strategies to meet consumer preferences and demand and to react to emerging trends. Because of this, a data analyst career is an in-demand option with competitive pay.
Data analysts make sense of data and numbers to help organizations make better business decisions. They prepare, process, analyze, and visualize data, discovering patterns and trends and answering key questions along the way. Their work empowers their wider team to make better business decisions.
The Google Data Analytics Certificate is for anyone with a curiosity about how things work. No prior experience or specific tool is required. All you need is high-school-level math.
Enrolling in the Google Data Analytics Certificate will teach you the skill set required to become a junior or associate data analyst. Data analysts know how to ask the right question; prepare, process, and analyze data for key insights; effectively share their findings with stakeholders; and provide data-driven recommendations for thoughtful action.
You'll learn these job-ready skills in our certificate program through interactive content (discussion prompts, quizzes, and activities) in under six months, with under 10 hours of flexible study a week.* Along the way, you'll work through a curriculum designed with input from top employers and industry leaders, like Tableau, Accenture, and Deloitte. You'll even have the opportunity to complete a case study that you can share with potential employers to showcase your new skill set.
After you've graduated from the program, you'll have access to career resources and the opportunity to connect directly with over 150 employers who are hiring for open entry-level roles in data analytics.
