Frequently asked questions
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 everyday, including when we stream a show, a song or post on social media.
Data analytics is the collection, transformation, and organisation of these facts to draw conclusions, make predictions, and drive informed decisions.
Companies must continually adjust their products, services, tools, and business strategies to meet consumer preferences and demands, and to react to emerging trends. Because of this, data analyst roles are in demand and competitively paid.
Data analysts make sense of data and numbers to help organisations make better business decisions. They prepare, process, analyse, and visualise data – discovering patterns and trends while answering key questions along the way. Their work empowers the rest of their team to make better business decisions.
