I started off with a single course to see how it would suit me as it had been 22 years since I had last studied. With the help from the people in Pitman, I completed the course and realised I could continue and get a Diploma. Best decision I could ever have made.

About this diploma

Today’s world is driven by data. More than ever, companies are striving to understand how to improve their operations by dissecting the data they collect to understand clients’ needs and industry trends.

As a Data Analyst, you could find yourself working within a wide range of organisations across a variety of sectors, but the common denominator is the need to glean insights from data. Data comes in a variety of forms and is stored in a variety of database management systems. And your first and foremost goal is to gather insights from the data. Often, you will be dealing with unstructured data stored in different types of data management systems. To achieve meaningful analytical results, several skills must be mastered.

In this diploma, you’ll gain practical analytical skills as you work through the courses. Not only will you find out more about how data is created and managed, but you’ll also look at the fundamentals of research methods and statistical analysis. You will also develop a strong foundation with the most powerful programming languages available for data manipulation, cleaning, and analysis.

Aims and Objectives

With this diploma, you’ll acquire a solid foundation of knowledge and skill to become a junior Data Analyst. You’ll work with Python and R, two programming languages widely used in the field of data analysis. And you’ll develop valuable skills with SQL, used for querying databases, and Tableau, which is widely used for data visualisation.

Courses Included

Excel Expert

In this course, you will learn advanced-level features of Microsoft Excel, such as macros, PivotTables, PivotCharts, and data analysis tools to help you make data-driven decisions.

In this course, we’ll cover the fundamental research methodology and modelling concepts that are key to performing robust data analytics, visualisation, and data interpretation.

Data Visualisation with Tableau

In this course, you’ll learn the power of storytelling through the visualisation of your data, and you’ll develop your skills in creating insightful visuals with Tableau.

Fundamentals of AI and Machine Learning

In this course, we’ll introduce you to essential concepts of artificial intelligence and machine learning –– technologies that are increasingly relevant in today’s sophisticated workplaces.

Project Management for Data Analysts

In this course, you’ll learn the concepts and tools most commonly used for project management in data science.

Python for Data Analysts

In this course, you’ll learn to code with Python. Python is a general-purpose programming language used for a variety of purposes, including web, software, and game development, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analysis.

R Programming and Statistical Analysis

In this course, you’ll learn the fundamental tools and packages to manipulate, organise, analyse, and visualise data using the R programming language in the RStudio developer environment.

SQL for Data Analysts

In this course, you’ll learn the essentials of Structured Query Language (SQL), a programming language used to extract and organise data stored in relational databases.

Pre-Requisites

Successful candidates will be proficient with Microsoft Excel and have a solid background in mathematics (e.g., algebra) and strong critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Previous exposure to coding is a plus.
