What I will learn?

  • This course will provide learners with practical tools to use regression methods in public policy analysis.
  • It is Druk Learning’s firm belief that all public policy agent and those who depend on evidence for policymaking should have a sound understanding of regression models, their interpretation and application.
  • The course will use R which is an open-source programming language optimized for statistical analysis. The motivation behind Druk Learning adopting programming languages such as R and python is to generate appreciation and interest among Bhutanese policymakers in the application of programming language.
