Statistics is the study of the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation and presentation of data. It deals with all aspects of data, including the planning of data collection in terms of the design of surveys and experiments. Descriptive statistics is the discipline of quantitatively describing the main features of a collection of data, or the quantitative description itself. Statistical inference (or inductive statistics) is the process of drawing conclusions from data that is subject to random variation, for example, observational errors or sampling variation. This training provides you with a substantial overview of both descriptive and inductive statistics. All topics are firstly explained in presentations with the fundamental mathematical theory and examples followed secondly by hands-on exercices.

Marco Skulschus (born in Germany in 1978) studied economics in Wuppertal (Germany) and Paris (France) and wrote his master´s thesis about semantic data modeling. He started working as a lecturer and consultant in 2002.
- He works as an IT-consultant and project manager. He developed various Business Intelligence systems for industry clients and the public sector. For several years now, he is responsible for a BI-team in India which is mainly involved in BI and OLAP projects, reporting systems as well as statistical analysis and Data Mining.
He led several research projects and was leading scientist and project manager of a publicly funded project about interactive questionnaires and online surveys.
