It also holds the larger role in the digital space with 25+ Million apps, 25+ Billion Embedded and Intelligent Systems, 50 Trillion GB’s of Data.
The speaker has depicted the comparison of flow of the task in the real world to the analytical world.
In the real world as we know it goes as:

Observation
Mental Model
Decision

In a similar way, the flow of the analytical world goes as:

Data
Mathematical Model
Decision

Analytics includes Data Science that is an amalgamation of statistics, data mining and machine learning.
It also considers Decision Science which includes Optimization, Decision Analysis and Simulation.
The webinar also included information about Jobs in Analytics such as:

Data Scientist or Analyst-liaison between the leadership and Data Science specialist.
Business Intelligence Architect or Business Analyst- Build system architectures, Link IT Systems, etc.,
Machine Learning or AI Scientist-Creativity, Excel in programming, Distributed Computing.
Data Visualization Developer-Work Collaboratively, Excel in visualization software(Tableau).

Some of the certifications that can help the students who want to emerge in the domain of analytics:

MCSE Business Intelligence Certificate-Microsoft Certified Solution Expert
Cloudera Certified Professional-CCP, CCDH, CCAH, CCSHB
EMC Data Science Associate-EMCDCA, EMCCA
SAS Certified Data Scientist-presentations are communication tools that can lecture.
Oracle Business Intelligence Certificate-OBI
