New Course: Advancing Your Career in Data

Written by IDS | Oct 12, 2020 10:11:06 AM

We are very proud of the fact that the iData Quality Academy is growing and are excited to announce our new courses launch event!

Before we get into the details, we would like to explain some decisions that we have taken; our goal with the program is to help as many people as possible learn more about the data industry, acquire new skills and knowledge and ultimately futureproof themselves in the challenging economic climate we have found ourselves in.

It is because of this challenging climate we have learned that we need to make what we are doing more accessible and constantly add value to you, our audience.

As a result we are happy to announce three steps we have taken to address the challenges experienced by all of us in the data community currently:

  • We are lowering the price of Getting Started With Data Quality by 66%, permanently
  • We have asked Alex to become an instructor and create a course teaching you how he navigated a successful career in data, lost everything and has worked his way back up again and priced this as aggressively as possible.
  • Everyone who purchases Getting Started with Data Quality will also receive Alex’s course Advancing Your Career In Data for free.

Not only that, but if you currently are unable to invest in these courses, if you email Alexander.Boast@intelligent-ds.co.uk between now and Christmas and explain your circumstances, Alex will potentially arrange up to 100% discount for a few of you, on the proviso that you recommend the course to your friends if it helps you.

About Advancing Your Career In Data:

Alex’s course is especially relevant to today’s circumstances in that it covers the skills you need to become adaptable, flexible and resilient to thrive in these uncertain times.

He is a known and respected member of the data community who can represent both sides of the interviewing table, as well as recently employed and unemployed.
