About this course

Course Description

For many modern businesses, having effective competency and capability levels in Web (Digitial) Analytics is critical to achieve their goals within their increasingly competitive environments.

Web (Digital) Analytics has been commonly defined as "...the collection, analysis and reporting of data about website usage."  Different types of experiences (e.g. mobile) available to organizations and users have moved beyond the web.  Therefore, this definition and related thinking/practices need to be broadened.  As such, this course will begin by exploring foundational knowledge and best practices within the web analytics context.  As the course progresses, it will extend into a broader context including but not limited to mobile analytics.

This course, Web (Digital) Analytics I, is the first half (1.5 credits) of what is intended to be a 3 credit course.  As such, this course is intended to provide students with working knowledge of only "the basics" of Web (Digital) Analytics.  The second half of this course, Web (Digital) Analytics II, will focus on more advanced topics within Web (Digital) Analytics.
