Student Success
The program has amazing insights into reading and understanding data and numbers, creating databases. The program layout is one of the best I've seen. It's a 360 view of becoming an analyst, from understanding the fundamentals of business, including marketing strategies and problems, to figuring out the complex statistics needed to solve the business problem.
The professors provide great feedback and encouragement. They always made themselves available to the students and showed support for the entire program. I was impressed by the quick turn-around time and the feedback I’ve received.
I feel that over the duration of the course I gained a lot of knowledge and practical strategies that have benefited me, and those I deal with personally and professionally. The course exceeded my expectations significantly. I understand how databases work, and it is opening up a whole new dimension! It’s fantastic!
