Course description
If you need basic maths and statistics for your current or future job role, this is the course for you.
The course is ideal for anyone who has to undertake some basic maths and statistics in their job role. For example, working out percentages is a key skill for analysing information. This is often needed when producing management reports. Actions such as comparing budgets year on year, or calculating key performance indicators (KPIs), all need basic maths and statistics.
It covers areas such as working out a percentage on your calculator; converting a fraction to a percentage; and calculating different averages. It includes ideas for presenting statistical information in the form of graphs and charts for presentations.
In addition to the online course, we have an easy to read book which also covers these areas plus other topics such as project appraisal. A link can be found on our website.
