What Our Students Say​

quote_square_left

The Instructor, Dave Unwin, was great.  I have to admit that I had my reservations about taking an online course, but I was pleasantly surprised.  Dave obviously put a lot of thought and effort into creating the materials for the course as well as structuring the assignments to give students thoughtful work. He responded to each and every question and was very hands-on.

This was the first class I've taken in a long time, the first online course I've ever taken, and my first statsics.com course.  I found it very easy to navigate and was pleasantly surprised at how involved the instructor was in the online discussion.  Great class!
