A/B Testing and Experiments training

Discover the changes that will make a difference

Have you ever wondered how Google chooses a color for its home page? How do they decide between two variations? In business, how can you know if changing something will improve it or not? Whether it's a website or model that powers your business, there is a way to determine which changes are "good" and should be rolled out, and which changes are “bad,” and should be discarded. The A/B Testing and Experiments training will teach you everything you need to know to successfully run your own experiments.

A/B Testing & Experiments is perfect for

Data Scientists and Analysts who work in organizations that use testing and want to professionalize experiments. Familiarity with statistics is required, as well as basic experience with Python. If you’re not quite there yet, we recommend, the Python for Data Analysts course as preparation for this training.
