Well the lesson was well conducted however some of the information was assumed that it should be known. However some of my friends do not have programming background. I think only further improvement needed is to translate some / more of the course information to more layman terms for them (Posted on 7/9/2016)1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2.

Dear Alfred,1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
Thank you for employing such a good lecturer .
The flow of the course is so smooth. Within such a short period, able to absorb so many thing.
Even the script was prepared and we do not need to worry that did not have the time to copy. We can always refer back.
The example given was useful.
Apart from that, I attended NUS-ISS Predictive Analytic Course(3 days course) half year ago. It was nowhere near what Mr Ravi taught.
Kindly let me know all the courses that taught by him so that I can attend.
Just get to know that he also taught R Machine Learning. I am very interested but would not be able to join within short period because I signed 4 courses with you this month.
I need show to management that I able to apply the R language in work. Then easier for me to justify for the course after 2 months.
Thank you.

Repackage the course to make it more concise - the 2nd part of the lesson was too rushed, which formed the most important parts of the course since the focus was on statistical analysis. Codes could also be written on the handout as exemplars for future use. Simple graphical representations involving pie charts, histograms and bar charts were not needed as they were too simple. Instead, more time could be focused on advanced statistical tools like Annova, use of t-test and chi-square. The link to the downloading of software could be given earlier so less time was needed to setup the software. (Posted on 6/11/2016)1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2.
