Thinking Beyond Patterns: Finding Meaning in Your Data

Click here to request a detailed program outline pdf for this topic

New technologies and analytical methods detect myriad patterns in our data, but what do they really mean and what decisions can they help us make? Is the underlying data reliable? Is it valid for the purpose you are using it?
