Contact SupportNot at all. Our Elementary Diploma starts from absolute basics — no prior coding, statistics, or maths experience required. We build up systematically so every concept makes sense before we introduce the next.
Data Analysis is a broader programme covering tools like Excel, Tableau, and Power BI. Python for Data Analysis is more technical — it focuses specifically on writing Python code to clean, analyse, and visualise data. Many students do Data Analysis first, then Python to deepen their skills.
You'll learn how to write effective prompts for ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI tools — then use no-code platforms to automate real workflows. By the end, you'll have built at least 3 working automations you can use immediately in any job.
Yes — always. We use real datasets from African industries including fintech, health, agriculture, and retail. You'll analyse data that reflects actual business problems, not textbook examples.
Start with Microsoft Excel Mastery or the Data Analysis Elementary Diploma — both are designed for complete beginners. If you're comfortable with spreadsheets already, you can jump straight into the Diploma programme.
Core lessons are recorded so you learn at your own pace. Diploma and Masterclass programmes also include weekly live Q&A sessions, mentor check-ins, and peer review calls where you get direct feedback on your work.
You'll receive certified digital credentials, access to our employer talent pool, ongoing job placement support, and referrals to our 48+ hiring partners. 91% of our data graduates are employed in relevant roles within 6 months of completing their programme.
