As a beginner in Data Analytics, with no experience, I am glad I selected Vertical Institute to start my learning journey with. Instructions provided and pace set by the trainer were acceptable. I find the Zoom recordings extremely useful for self-revisions.

It was truly a wonderful learning experience for me personally, especially since I was able to work directly on tools such as Excel, SQL and Tableau. Such hands-on experience allowed me to think critically about how best we can present insights through data visualisation.
