This has been an eye-opening journey for me. Looking at data over the last six weeks I learned to understand it’s value, different ways of looking at it, the impact it can have on people’s lives and the value of predicting the future.

###### Gretl M

This course has been awesome and a great stepping stone to build confidence in using data no matter which industry you are from.

###### Director, Qina Consulting

The assignments were the highlight of the course. They were well designed – it’s good to use real live data from a different sphere than I’m used to working in. And I really liked how they built on the previous assignment learnings.
