Overview

‘Data analysis’ probably isn’t in your job description – it’s something you do only out of necessity.

You get asked a question about your work, and you’re expected to present the answer. You build reports, export data from tools like Google Analytics, and make charts – not the most fun part of your job. But what if it was?

This course presents a new approach to data analysis – the lazy way. Google Sheets has become a weapon of mass laziness – when combined with tools like Blockspring and Zapier, it allows you to drastically cut your time spent wrangling and analyzing data.

In this course, you’ll learn the three-part process we use at Coding is for Losers to analyze data:

  1. Pulling data into Sheets using apps like Blockspring or Zapier
  2. The 10 key Google Sheets formulas we use to wrangle data
  3. Build beautiful charts and dashboards in Google Data Studio
If you’ve ever used a spreadsheet, you’re closer than you think to becoming a data analysis master. *Warning: This course is _not_ for spreadsheet beginners.
