About the Course

In this course, we extend your business forecasting expertise from the first two courses of our Business Forecasting Specialisation on Time Series Models and Regression Models.

We will be exploring some structured methodologies to create judgmental business forecasts using Business Indicators, Subjective Assessment Methods, and Exploratory Methods.

I recently completed the "Judgmental Business Forecasting in Excel" course and I was thoroughly impressed. The course provided a great balance of theory and practical application, teaching me how to use both data and judgement to make more accurate forecasting predictions. The instructor was knowledgeable and engaging, making the material easy to understand and enjoyable to learn. The case studies and hands-on practice were particularly helpful in reinforcing the concepts taught in each week. Overall, I found the course to be very practical and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their forecasting skills and understand the role of judgement in forecasting.

Not very user friendly for Mac users. I have some problem locating the tools shared in the view. Maybe the instructor can make a note and publish a mac guide.

Too much focus on decimal points and basic tasks in Excel. Poor quality control on course materials (power points, worksheets, and tests)

This course is not only useless but incorrect about 20% of the time. I have expereince in forecasting and the topics cocered in this course in the series are out of date and the piees related to cyclical/judgemental are out of date, poorly explained and many of the statements are wrong including the quizzes. I quit most of the way through because it seemed to be doing more harm than good.
