A Note about the Fossa Certificate
A1.1 What is Statistics?
This course uses three different options for statistical analysis software for the practical exercises. The next lesson (A1.2) is broken up into three subsections. You only need to complete the one for the software you are planning to use throughout the course. These sessions will help you to familiarise yourself with your chosen software, and set up the course datasets. After the initial set up, there will be one lesson for each topic, but then you will have the choice of which statistical software you would like to use for the practical. Each software package is denoted by a specific colour of banner.
