Our Verdict
This course offers a comprehensive overview of econometric techniques using R and Python. The instructor's real-world case studies, knowledgeable guidance, and clear explanations make learning accessible for beginners while remaining engaging for intermediate to advanced learners. However, the course slightly lacks in stressing important assumptions, contextualizing models from a mathematical standpoint, exploring result interpretation thoroughly, and incorporating varied practical examples. Overall, this Udemy course is an excellent starting point for those wanting to apply causal inference and statistical modeling techniques to business problems without delving extensively into theoretical foundations.
What We Liked
- Excellent coverage of econometric techniques and their applications in business settings
- Real-life case studies enhance understanding and applicability
- Instructor is knowledgeable, attentive, and quick to respond to questions
- Well-organized content with clear explanations
- Covers both R and Python implementation
Potential Drawbacks
- Assumptions behind techniques should be stressed more
- Could benefit from in-depth summaries for beginners and clarification of model restrictions
- Not all real-life examples are interesting or relevant; usage of free online data sources could improve practical cases
- Limited mathematical explanations and lack of formulae presentation
- Interpreting the results and their significance could be explored further
