Analysing Data Skills Bootcamp

Many people have experienced significant changes in their working environments and styles over the past two years, with an increasing number of people now working from home. With greater reliance on digital tools and systems, and new ways of remote working, it’s important for professionals to build the skills they need to keep pace.

Even for those that are not in technical roles, it’s becoming more important than ever to understand the basic principles of data analysis, data processing, and how to turn data into actionable business insight.

Besides building a strong foundational awareness of data principles, this course will introduce you to key tools and techniques, as well as give you an accredited qualification upon completion. The programme is funded by UK Government (with a 30% employer contribution), and thus is free to learners – whatever their employment status.
