"I’m so glad I pushed through and kept going with the programme. When we started, I didn't know so much, but now I’m like “OK let's do it in Python!” I can visualise things – it's very comfortable now."

- Saurabh Dixit
Sr. Technical Project Manager, AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner

"This course is a comprehensive instruction of all the skills and tools one needs to make it as a Data Analyst. It's helped me connect different siloed bits of information and turn them into a marketable skill set for employers. The best bit about the course - the team and the support they provide! Enrolling in the course was the best career decision I have made."

- Ash Johnson
Senior Data Engineer, CityWire
