STATISTICAL CONSULTING - INFORMATION AREA
GIVE VALUE TO YOUR DATA
Data can be a mine of information and it is important to know how to extract what is valuable for your business and/or research.
WHY DO STATISTICS MATTER?
Because we live in a complex world, where large amounts of data are collected and based on these decisions.
WHO IS THE STATISTICAL CONSULTANT?
The statistician is the one who plans the data collection, organizes, analyzes and presents them in the most suitable format.
WHEN DO I NEED A STATISTICIAN?
DURING DATA COLLECTION
Data collection is time and money consuming and a researcher’s worst nightmare is to collect unusable data.
Quality data can provide reliable information if collected properly. To be understood and analysed, data must be cleaned and organized according to the purposes of the study.
DURING DATA ANALYSIS
Statisticians apply advanced quantitative and analytical skills to perform data analysis and interpret the results obtained.
PRESENTING RESULTS
Results are useful only if they are presented in a clear and meaningful format. Statisticians create reports, tables, and graphs making results accessible to other researchers and the general public.
Without statistics...
Without statistics we cannot know if the results obtained are valid and reliable. Accurate definition of methodology and adequate data analysis give strength and reliability to the research.
