Frequently Asked Questions


When does the course start and finish?
The course starts now and never ends! It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish.
How long do I have access to the course?
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
What if I am unhappy with the course?
We would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us in the first 30 days and we will give you a full refund.
Is Data Science for Business Part 1 a Prerequisite?
Yes. I expect that you know basic R, the tidyverse, and have had previous exposure to the tidymodels ecosystem. While I teach every time series visualization, transformation, feature engineering, and modeling algorithm in-depth, I depend on your knowledge of non-time series skills like data wrangling and basic machine learning.
Will there be any additional costs in the course?
I'm happy to say that all of the tools I cover are 100% Free & Open Source. I am the creator of 2 of the key libraries: modeltime & timetk. The 3rd, GluonTS, is built and actively maintained by Amazon as part of their MXNet ecosystem. So you can feel assured that you are learning amazing software at zero extra cost.
