“I immediately started using Tableau and Microsoft Bi to see what would be the best solution not only for myself to communicate with my Executive team, but what others would like to use to assist in improving a data driven culture. … I wanted to use the program to close gaps where I often struggled or just become more efficient at what I was able to do. It has improved my skills and thought process considerably in a short time.”

“The classes were very useful and I realized when I was consulting how much companies need these skills sets of being able to look at data and actually understand what story is being told by the numbers. I really think this skill will move to being required instead of preferable by companies.”
