Introduction
The Business Analytics course at the Bangladesh-Korea Information Access Center (BK-IAC) is
designed for professionals looking to enhance their skills in utilizing data for strategic decision-
making in the business world. This comprehensive course covers various aspects of business
analytics, from Python fundamentals to advanced machine learning model development and real-
world case studies.
Objectives
o To master Python fundamentals for data analysis, including variables, loops, arrays,
functions, strings, and file handling.

wrangling techniques.
o To delve into exploratory data analysis (EDA) and visualization using Python libraries
like Matplotlib and Seaborn.
o Introducing hypothesis testing and regression analysis for making informed business
decisions.
o Applying analytics skills through case studies in stock analysis, investment study, and
other real-world scenarios.
