With its popularity as a statistical programming language rapidly increasing with each passing day, R is increasingly becoming the preferred tool of choice for data analysts and data scientists who want to make sense of large amounts of data as quickly as possible. R has a rich set of libraries that can be used for basic as well as advanced data analysis.

This comprehensive 3-in-1 course delivers you the ability to conduct data analysis in practical contexts with R, using core language packages and tools. The goal is to provide analysts and data scientists a comprehensive learning course on how to manipulate and analyse small and large sets of data with R. You will learn to implement your learning with real-world examples of data analysis. You will also work on three different projects to apply the concepts of data analysis.

This training program includes 3 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.

The first course, Learning Data Analysis with R, starts off with covering the most basic importing techniques to download compressed data from the web and will help you learn more advanced ways to handle the most difficult datasets to import. You will then learn how to create static plots and how to plot spatial data on interactive web platforms such as Google Maps and Open Street maps. You will learn to implement your learning with real-world examples of data analysis.

The second course, Mastering Data Analysis with R, contains carefully selected advanced data analysis concepts such as cluster analysis, time-series analysis, Association mining, PCA (Principal Component Analysis), handling missing data, sentiment analysis, spatial data analysis with R and QGIS, advanced data visualization with R and ggplot2.

The third course, R Data Analytics Projects, takes you on a data-driven journey that starts with the very basics of R data analysis and machine learning. You will then work on three different projects to apply the concepts of machine learning and data analysis. Each project will help you to understand, explore, visualize, and derive domain- and algorithm-based insights.

By the end of this Learning Path, you'll gain in-depth knowledge of the basic and advanced data analysis concepts in R and will be able to put your learnings into practice.
