The course is designed by so many kinds of learners can benefit. You do not need to come with advanced math or programming skills. But some basic abilities help.
You can join if you:

• Have basic arithmetic knowledge (percentages, averages)
• Can use a computer and have some familiarity with spreadsheets (Excel or Google Sheets)
• Are motivated to learn and practice regularly
• Want to improve your job prospects or shift to data roles
• Are comfortable with logic, asking “why” and “how” questions

Even if you have zero experience, this beginner‑friendly approach means you can start from scratch. If you already know some tools, you’ll go faster.
 

Why This Course Offers the Benefits for You

Here’s why we believe this course is valuable:
