This comprehensive course provides both theoretical understanding and practical applications of linear regression analysis, a critical tool for defining relationships between variables and making predictions. Students learn how linear regression works, how to build effective models, and how to interpret the resulting information. The course combines theory with hands-on practice, using real data sets in both Excel and Python environments to solve problems similar to those encountered in business settings. Starting with simple linear regression, the curriculum progresses to multiple linear regression and advanced techniques. Students learn to perform regression calculations manually in Excel, use specialized plugins for advanced analysis, and implement regression models in Python using both statsmodels and sklearn libraries. The course emphasizes proper interpretation of regression outputs including coefficients, p-values, residuals, and various evaluation metrics. By completion, participants will understand the assumptions behind linear regression, know when and how to apply various regression techniques, and be able to make data-driven recommendations based on regression analysis.

This course provides a comprehensive exploration of linear regression analysis for business and finance professionals. The curriculum begins with simple linear regression fundamentals, teaching students the underlying mathematical concepts including ordinary least squares and parameter fitting. Students learn to perform regression calculations manually in Excel, use Excel's Data Analysis tools, and apply the RegressIt plugin for enhanced analysis. The course then advances to implementing regression in Python using both statsmodels and scikit-learn libraries, covering data importing, exploratory analysis, model fitting, and result visualization. Multiple linear regression techniques are introduced, with special attention to issues like multicollinearity. A significant portion of the course focuses on proper interpretation of regression results, including understanding residuals, OLS assumptions, evaluation metrics (R-squared, adjusted R-squared), coefficient interpretation, and p-values. The final modules cover advanced regression techniques such as log-log regression, polynomial regression, logistic regression, and segmented models. Throughout the course, students complete practical challenges that reinforce concepts with real-world applications.
