Just wanted to share my experience with Vertical Institute's Data Analytics course. I completed it and honestly, it was super worth it.

You can do it online at your own pace which was great for me since I was juggling work and other commitments. Plus, the course is heavily subsidised so the fees are super affordable. And if you use SkillsFuture or NTUC UTAP, the remaining balance can be offset — really easy on the pocket!

I got hands-on with Excel, SQL, and Tableau, and the instructors were really helpful and know their stuff. If you’re looking to upskill in data analytics, this is a local, affordable option that I highly recommend. It really helped me build confidence and sharpen my skills. Definitely give it a go if you're keen!

I recently completed the Data Analytics course at Vertical Institute and wanted to share my experience. The classes are fully online and live, led by instructors who are actual industry professionals from top companies. This made the sessions highly interactive and practical. The flexibility of the schedule allowed me to balance learning with other commitments. The hands-on approach meant that the skills I acquired were immediately applicable. For anyone considering upskilling in data analytics, I'd recommend checking them out.
