Overview

The Data Analytics Bootcamp is a 24-hour, 68-lesson curriculum that takes you from no experience to completing full data analysis projects. It combines the core skills of a working analyst — Python, SQL, and Pandas — into one structured path with 10 hands-on projects.

The bootcamp starts with Python fundamentals and SQL querying, then moves into the daily workflow of an analyst: cleaning messy datasets, exploring them systematically, visualizing findings, and applying basic statistics to interpret results honestly.

Every stage ends with a project, and the final capstone walks you through a complete analysis: framing a question, gathering and cleaning data, exploring it, and presenting conclusions.

What you'll learn

  • Write Python for data work: variables, loops, functions, and collections
  • Query relational databases with SQL: SELECT, JOINs, and aggregation
  • Manipulate datasets with Pandas DataFrames
  • Clean real-world data: missing values, duplicates, and inconsistent formats
  • Explore datasets systematically with summary statistics and grouping
  • Visualize data with clear, honest charts
  • Apply basic statistics: distributions, correlation, and averages done right
  • Complete 10 projects, including a full end-to-end capstone analysis

Frequently asked questions

Does the bootcamp overlap with the Python and SQL courses?

There is intentional overlap in the foundations: Modules 1 and 2 condense the essentials of Python and SQL. The bootcamp then goes further into cleaning, exploration, visualization, and statistics, which the standalone courses do not cover in depth.

How long does the bootcamp take?

It contains 24 hours of material across 68 lessons and 10 projects. At 4–5 hours per week, most learners complete it in 6–8 weeks.

Is this enough to apply for data analyst jobs?

The bootcamp covers the core technical skills asked of junior analysts and produces 10 portfolio projects. Pair it with the Data Analyst Learning Roadmap guide for the broader picture, including portfolio and practice advice.
