This course guides learners through the structured development of predictive models using Random Forest techniques in R, specifically applied to employee attrition data. The course is divided into two comprehensive modules. The first module introduces the foundational concepts of classification and Random Forest algorithms, guiding learners to explain, identify, and prepare relevant variables. Learners also perform essential preprocessing tasks to shape the dataset for analysis.
In the second module, students construct, tune, and evaluate Random Forest models using real-world HR data. Through practical lessons, participants will apply parameter optimization techniques, analyze model performance using appropriate metrics, and justify their modeling choices using validation strategies. By the end of the course, learners will have the capability to build robust, interpretable machine learning models for workforce analytics and make informed data-driven decisions regarding employee retention.
This module introduces learners to the fundamentals of employee attrition prediction using Random Forest algorithms in R. It begins with an overview of the business problem, explores the machine learning methodology behind Random Forest, and establishes a strong conceptual framework. Learners will also examine the structure and significance of the dataset, understand variable types and transformations, and perform essential pre-modeling tasks such as data cleaning and encoding. By the end of this module, learners will be able to prepare data and understand Random Forest fundamentals essential for building predictive models.

Détails du module
This module focuses on implementing, tuning, and validating Random Forest models for employee attrition prediction. Learners will begin by developing a predictive model using cleaned and preprocessed data. They will then explore techniques to optimize model performance, including parameter tuning and validation methods. Emphasis is placed on understanding how hyperparameters influence model behavior and ensuring robust evaluation using appropriate metrics. By the end of the module, learners will be able to build, fine-tune, and validate a Random Forest model that generalizes well to unseen data.

’Apprendre, ce n'est pas seulement s'améliorer dans son travail : c'est bien plus que cela. Coursera me permet d'apprendre sans limites.’
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
