  • Included in this course is an e-book and a set of slides. The purpose of the course is to introduce the students to regression techniques. The course covers linear regression, logistic regression and count model regression. The theory behind each of these three techniques is described in an intuitive and non-mathematical way. Students will learn when to use each of these three techniques, how to test the assumptions, how to build models, how to assess the goodness-of-fit of the models, and how to interpret the results. The course does not assume the use of any specific statistical software. Therefore, this course should be of use to anyone intending on applying regression techniques no matter which software they use. The course also walks students through three detailed case studies.

  • Frequently Asked Questions

    How long do I have access to the course materials?

    You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

    Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

    Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
