Business Forecasting

A ten-day practical learning journey for building, evaluating, explaining, and governing business forecasts that support real decisions across demand, operations, finance, inventory, capacity, and planning.

Before you take this course

English language proficiency is required to understand the teaching, terminology, examples, and assessment questions.
This is interactive, slide-based learning. Please take Module 1 free first to check that you are comfortable with the learning format.
No prior forecasting, statistics, data science, AI, or programming experience is required. Comfort with percentages, averages, basic arithmetic, and simple algebra will make the numerical lessons easier.
You will work through forecasting formulas and calculations. Making notes and reproducing the worked examples is strongly recommended, especially for smoothing methods, accuracy metrics, regression, intervals, and forecast evaluation.
No forecasting software or programming language is taught. The course teaches forecasting reasoning, methods, calculations, validation, and business application rather than training you on Excel, Python, R, Power BI, or a specific forecasting platform.
The course uses business time-series examples, charts, forecast intervals, and model comparisons. You should be willing to interpret numerical evidence rather than rely only on qualitative business judgement.
This is a 10-day course with 50 modules. Plan for about 30 minutes a day, and closer to an hour if you pause to make notes and work through the calculations carefully.
The course teaches forecasts as decision evidence, not certainty. You will be expected to distinguish forecasts from targets, budgets, scenarios, managerial overrides, and final business plans.

Why this course

Six things you can check before you pay.

50 findings, not 50 definitions

Every module ends in something quantified and slightly surprising — a number you did not expect, worked out in front of you. Nothing here asks you to memorise a term.

100 questions, one attempt each

Locked the moment you answer. No retries, no second attempts, no grinding a score upward. That is exactly why the score is worth putting on a CV.

About 30 minutes a day

5 modules a day across 10 days. Built for people with a job, on a phone, in the gaps — not for people with a free afternoon.

$0.24 a module

Paid once. No subscription, no expiry, and no upsell at the end. The same rate applies whichever Learn50 course you start with.

A credential anyone can check

At 40% and above you get a certificate that is a web address, not a file. Whoever you send it to opens it and sees the same score, date and number you do.

No prerequisites

No degree, no entrance test, no application. Every term is defined the first time it is used, and nothing assumes you studied this before.

Questions

Before you buy.

No. There is no eligibility requirement, no entrance test and no application — anyone can buy it and start. Every term is defined the first time it is used. No prior forecasting, statistics, data science, AI, or programming experience is required. Comfort with percentages, averages, basic arithmetic, and simple algebra will make the numerical lessons easier.

No. The 10 days are a pace, not a deadline. Access is for life, so you can take 5 modules a day and finish in 10, or one a week and finish when you finish. Nothing expires and nothing is withdrawn if you stop for a month.

Every module ends in two questions worth one mark each — 100 marks across the course. Your Learn50 Score is the percentage you get right, and it earns a Tier: Copper from 40%, up to Diamond at 90% and above.

No, and that is deliberate. Each question locks the moment you answer it. If retakes were allowed, everybody would eventually score 100 and the number would mean nothing — the score is worth putting on a CV precisely because it cannot be ground upward.

At 40% and above, a certificate that is a web address rather than a file — anyone you send it to can open it and see the same score, date and certificate number that you see. Below 40% the course records that you finished every module and sat every question, marked as Attempted.

No, and it does not claim to be. It is a certificate from Learn50 recording a score on a test you sat once, with no retries. It is not accredited by any university and is not a substitute for one.

$12.00, paid once. There is no subscription, no renewal and no expiry, and no further payment at any point in the course. Every Learn50 course is priced at the same rate per module, so a shorter course costs proportionally less rather than more.

Yes — a full refund within 7 days of purchase, or until you complete the course, whichever comes first. Completing the course means finishing every module, at which point the certificate has been issued and the refund window closes.

What you finish with

A certificate anyone can check.

There is no file to lose and nothing to forge. The certificate is a web address, and whoever you send it to sees the same score, the same date and the same number that you do.
