Say Hello to the Newest Data Analyst on Your Block

Damola Mabogunje -

Hello all! After 6 months of engaging training, I have finally completed my Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate! Through this course, I have learnt to prepare, process, analyze, and share data for thoughtful action. The course introduced me to a whole bunch of skills that I didn't have before such as:

  • Working efficiently with Spreadsheets
  • Using the R Programming Language
  • Using Tableau for Data Visualization
  • Data Cleaning & Wrangling

In addition to this, it levelled up some of my existing skills like:

  • Working with data in SQL
  • Problem Solving
  • Structured Thinking
  • Making Presentations

Finally, it informed and educated me on relevant topics, such as:

  • Data Ethics
  • Open Data
  • The Data Science Community

So in the coming days I look forward to beginning to contribute to the Data Science Community by starting to create my very own Data Visualizations and sharing my Analysis. After all, these skills are meant to be wielded, aren't they?
