Statistical Modeling

Statistical Modeling

In this Mastery Series, you’ll choose three courses (out of five) to learn how to apply linear models to all sorts of data – regression for continuous data, then extensions for categorical and count data, as well as more complex data structures like clustered and hierarchical data.

Overview

In this Mastery Series (choose 3 of 5 courses), you'll learn regression, and generalized linear models (GLM) extensions of linear models to cover categorical and count data, plus mixed models to cover clustered and hierarchical data.

I need to transfer credit to my college or university.

ACE (The American Council on Education) can help you document your skills and experiences so that you can receive credit for what you already know. After passing a course which carries ACE credit recommendaton, we will issue a digital badge on Credly’s Acclaim platform, which you can share through social media and send to professional contacts. Through Acclaim you can also send a free, digitial, official academic transcript directly to a college or university to receive credit for prior learning. Because each college or university makes its own decisions about whether to grant credit, we recommend that you reach out to the colleges you are considering directly to find out where to send the transcript and what prior learning policies they have in place. If your school will not accept the ACE Credit Recommendation, but will accept our Record of Completion noting Continuing Education Units (CEU's) be sure to download a copy of your Record at the end of the course for your files.  If you need your final marks sent to a specific person, you may write to the Registrar (ourcourses@statistics.com) to request this.  Include the full name, title and email address of the person who is to receive this information, plus your name and course title. An email will be sent, reporting your final marks. If you require a more formal notification, we can provide a transcript, which can be sent to your school. Please pay the transcript preparation fee here, then send an email to the Registrar, requesting the same. Please see our knowledge center for more information.

Is my school in the ACE CREDIT College and University Network?

Check this list on ACE's website to see if your school is already part of the ACE CREDIT College and University Network.

If not, discuss this with the advisor at your school, to see if they will accept the ACE Credit Recommendation. 

Please see our knowledge center for more information.

Who approves my courses for college credit?

While the American Council on Education's College Credit Recommendation Service (ACE CREDIT) has evaluated and recommended college credit for several courses offered by Statistics.com, the decision to accept specific credit recommendations is up to each institution to which you are applying credit.
