R is an open-source programming language that provides various statistical and graphical techniques.  This Training on Statistical Data Analysis using R will give you a solid foundation in creating statistical analysis solutions using the R language, and how to carry out a range of commonly used analytical processes. Participants will learn to manipulate data, conduct exploratory data analysis, perform statistical tests, and create visualizations.

Course Objectives

Statistical data analysis using R aims to help participants;

1. Understand the fundamentals of R programming language.
2. Learn data manipulation and cleaning techniques using R.
3. Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA) to understand the structure and relationships within datasets.
4. Apply statistical tests and methods to analyze data.
5. Create insightful visualizations to communicate data analysis results effectively.
