Forecasting the World and Your Business

This course, originally designed by UCLA Anderson Forecast, provides the practical knowledge of the underlying trends and cycles of global economies, U.S. businesses, global and U.S. industries, and their outlooks. It introduces to you useful and powerful methods and tools of analyzing marketplace data that impacts company revenues, expenses, growth strategies, and competitive positions. Topics include regional and international economies, stock markets, interest rates, housing markets, employment/unemployment, and additional macro-economic trends/considerations. Participants leave the course with an understanding of the state and prospects of the economy, key business sectors and--importantly--the "best practice" skillsets of the Anderson Forecast to analyze your own company's data as well as new investments risks.
