Not everyone has had the opportunity to take a course in research methods, but the success of modern workplaces relies heavily on data and digital literacy. With the added impact of AI, it’s clear that workplace professionals need to rapidly develop their analytical skills.
Before diving into workplace data lakes, start with a crash course in the basics. Long before big data, there was just data—and the methods to make sense of it. That’s where our course starts, helping you get comfortable with the fundamentals.
In this first Data Literacy for Workplace Professionals webinar, we’ll use familiar workplace examples to lay the foundations and set the scene for what’s to come. Get ready to blend practical, problem-based learning with community-inspiring know-how.
In this webinar, we’ll explore:
Why workplace research matters

How to frame effective workplace research questions
Basic workplace data analysis techniques
