SQA Certified Units

The units on this course are delivered concurrently with a holistic approach to both delivery and assessment. There are no end-loaded assessments with all theoretical evidence being built up holistically from Week 1 and all practical elements covered with one showcase project

The course was a fantastic experience that not only helped me gain a better understanding of data science but thanks to Rik's clear guidance, accessible materials and positive encouragement it has made me a more confident learner in general and especially when it comes to data. I am able to use what I have learnt immediately and it has already enhanced my current role as well as created some positive future opportunities.
