There are 2 modules in this course
This module introduces learners to the foundational concepts and workflow involved in developing a linear regression model using Python. The lessons walk through identifying the use case, importing the essential libraries, performing exploratory data analysis (EDA), and understanding data behavior through visualizations. Learners will analyze univariate and bivariate distributions and investigate data quality elements such as outliers and variable spread—setting the stage for building reliable and interpretable predictive models.

This module guides learners through the essential steps involved in preparing, training, and evaluating a simple linear regression model in Python. It introduces the importance of understanding variable relationships through bivariate analysis, implements a base model for initial predictions, and interprets model output using prediction comparisons and evaluation metrics. By the end of this module, learners will be able to conduct a basic machine learning run and assess their model’s performance against real-world data.
