Without big data, you are blind and deaf and in the middle of a freeway.

Data Analytics Courses
What is Data Analytics?
Data analytics is the process of sourcing, cleaning and manipulating raw data to reveal metrics and formulate data insights. Data analytics is also used to improve internal operations, optimising a company’s efficiency and capacity for sustainable growth.
Data insights are the backbone of well-informed business decisions, leading to more effective strategies and increased market share.
Why study Data Analytics?
An incredible 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are generated daily, with the volume of the world’s data now expected to double every two years.
Underpinning the most profitable business strategies, big data is currently worth over US$200 Billion globally, meaning industry demand for data analysis skills is at an all-time high.*
As Chief Google Economist Hal Varian puts it, “The sexy job in the next 10 years will be statisticians, and I’m not kidding.”

Our students’ success stories
Academy Xi scored 5 out of 5, as rated by our students.
“By the time the final assignment week came, I was quite comfortable writing Python code that I had no idea about when I started the course!”
Kanako Chapman
It was very challenging and exciting course, as there were so much to learn in a short term (12 weeks). I needed to put lots of self study hours in to keep up with the class, but it was worth it. By the time the final assignment week came, I was quite comfortable writing Python code that I had no idea about when I started the course! The mentor was very knowledgeable and helpful and it was great to have the class community via Slack as we helped each other a lot through out the course.
“I can highly recommend Academy Xi and have become a massive fan of what they are achieving”
Kerry Dawson
I can highly recommend Academy Xi and have become a massive fan of what they are achieving. The advice I would give to anyone thinking about taking the leap and changing their career/life is: your attitude that will determine your outcome. If you go in with an open mind and positive determination you will succeed.
“Academy Xi gave me the training I wanted; the discomfort zone I needed, and a family I never expected!”
Dennii Lee Stanbridge
Academy Xi gave me the training I wanted; the discomfort zone I needed, and a family I never expected! I wouldn't be where I am without the Academy Xi tribe putting me in the firing line of opportunities I may not have dared for myself. Be prepared to work hard. Accept and push through the moments of uncertainty, doubt and overwhelm. Surrender to and trust the process.
