### How we teach
- **Collection & quality**: Sources, joins, missing values, basic ethics. An analysis is never better than its table.
- **Languages**: SQL to query, Python to transform and automate. Clarity over algorithmic fireworks.
- **Visualisation**: Power BI, DAX, storytelling. A dashboard is a steering tool, not a gallery.
- **Decision support**: Useful stats, first models, and the Monday question: what do we do if the KPI moves?

1. **Question**: We start from a problem (sales, delay, stock, hiring), not an orphan file.
2. **Preparation**: Import, cleaning, model. That is 70% of the job; we do not skip it.
3. **Analysis**: Measures, visuals, scenarios. The trainer plays the business stakeholder who “does not get the jargon”.
4. **Delivery**: Shared report, short docs, defence. You have to stand behind your numbers.

### Tools & stack
Advanced Excel, SQL, Python, Pandas, Power BI, DAX, Power Query, Basic Git

### Where it leads
- Data analyst / decision analyst
- Power BI specialist / BI officer
- Reporting consultant
- Data-driven manager (dedicated path)

### Common questions
#### Do I need to be strong in mathematics?
High-school level is enough to start. We teach useful stats (averages, distributions, correlation) in a business-data context, not a research curriculum.

#### Is Power BI enough, or do I need Python?
It depends on the role. Power BI is a visual accelerator and a door to the Microsoft certification. The Expert path adds Python and SQL, which show up as soon as volume and automation rise.

#### Do you work with local company data?
Yes — anonymised cases or open sets close to the field (retail, services, finance). The point is to brief a Douala MD, not only a Kaggle notebook.

### A dashboard only matters if it changes a decision.
Expert path, intensive Power BI or manager format: we will tell you which one matches your level and your goal.
