“Before starting the Data Analyst apprenticeship, I found cleaning tabulated Excel data to be a resource-intensive task. One of the most immediately useful modules was data manipulation. Since I work with tabulated data daily, I was able to put what I’d learned into practice right away, effectively cleaning the data I handle in my role. Learning how to clean data using Python has since freed up valuable capacity, allowing me to focus more on the actual business analysis.

The data analysis skills I’ve gained will help me make more informed decisions and solve problems more efficiently. My goal is to apply these skills to tackle more complex problems and collaborate with new stakeholder groups and businesses.

The practical, hands-on approach during the workshops has been perfect for my learning style. Being able to ask questions and work through problems directly with the trainer has been invaluable. The Decoded team have been a pleasure to work with, providing outstanding support throughout the process.”
