Courses in management, analyses and presentation of environmental data

Human induced threats to the environment have increased rapidly over the last decades. This has resulted in international, national and community legislations to protect habitats world over. As a consequence of these regulations and their application, small and large companies have had to collect and analyse environmental data either for themselves or for third parties. Throughout such programs, large volumes of biological, chemical and physical data have been routinely acquired, often from a variety of sources and hence, in a variety of formats.

One of the challenges for environmental project and department managers is to capture and maintain these complex datasets, which may be acquired over a period of years, in an organized and accessible fashion. Statistics offer powerful tools for transforming vast collections of seemingly undifferentiated data into insight and understanding that can drive better decision-making and improve competitiveness.

On the other hand, and due to this data and source accumulation it is essential that employees dealing with environmental data can discern their feasibility and are able to analyse both the legitimacy of their origin and their potentiality as a base for decision-making. Moreover, in order to extrapolate the maximum information from their data it is essential that these managers have a better understanding of which statistical tools to use for the analysis of their data. In this context, Menntun offers several courses designed to help companies to improve their employees’ competence in gathering, organizing, analysing and displaying data.
