Random Testimonial
This was great. The format was excellent for learning on your terms/pace and adds long-term value by providing an excellent continued education opportunity, material you can refer back to when needed for specific examples and problems. Learned so much, a skill set that will be in high demand/utilized in any type of economic condition. And, taught by someone that brought real life experiences to the lecture and SRO, truly a subject matter expert. --R.Ta. |

Random Heresy
| I read an article in Wired magazine the other day that got me to thinking about the relationship between statistics, engineering knowledge, and theory. The article claimed that with the era of massive data storage and analytical capabilities, the scientific concept of the “theory” was becoming obsolete.
