About the course

Course: this intensive, hands-on and self-paced online course, available globally, emphasizes the application of time series econometrics using Eviews – basic, intermediate, and advanced level - and interpretation of econometric output and results in a straightforward manner to facilitate ease of understanding. Only key elements of theory have been mentioned - as application and interpretation is emphasized. No maths or previous experience in econometrics is required to do this course. However, a basic level of knowledge of statistics is needed. 

 

Eviews: no prior knowledge of EViews is required or assumed. Upon enrolment, the participant will have lifetime access to this online course. Even if you currently don't have access to Eviews, you can always take up the course and learn how to use this econometric software. Then, whenever you have access to Eviews you can go back and watch the videos of this course on how to use it practically - as upon enrollment, you will have lifetime access to this course. 

 

Uniqueness of this course: it has been designed by a professional economist and econometrician (me) who brings a rare blend of academic knowledge and practical application of time series econometrics using economic, financial and industry data at the work place (20+ years of experience, worked in London and New Delhi (India), and am currently working in an economic and industry research firm) 

 

Target audience: early and mid-career professionals, and students from any background, discipline, or sector across the globe

 

Key feature: this course includes techniques and models that are commonly used at the work place. After completion of the course, the participant will be able to immediately and smartly apply time series econometrics using Eviews on the job. 

 

Key benefits: enhance earnings, employment and career prospects, prove more valuable to prospective/current employers, and excel on the job.

 

Saves a lot of time and money: an important reason for developing this online vocational training course is that many professionals and students - particularly from emerging economies - are unable to go abroad for higher education or vocational training in this domain due to financial or time constraints. 

 

Limited enrolment: from October 15, 2024 onwards, only 4,000 people will be able to enrol globally (outside India) and 1,000 from India over the next 12 months i.e. a total of 5,000 people - to foster a high-quality, focused learning environment for dedicated or committed learners. Certificate and Non-Certificate options are available (read below).

Option 2: No-Test Option - if any professonal or student wishes to enhance job-related skills in this domain without wanting to take a test, they too can enrol and complete the course. However, no 'Certificate of Completion' will be given.
