Inferential statistics courses can help you learn hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, regression analysis, and sampling methods. You can build skills in interpreting data, making predictions, and drawing conclusions from sample data. Many courses introduce tools like R and Python for statistical analysis, along with software such as SPSS and Excel, that support applying these statistical techniques to real-world data sets.
