The Capstone Project is a mandatory component of the Award of Achievement in Data Analysis. The project is pre-approved and evaluated by the instructor and is typically completed within four to six weeks.

What is the Capstone project?

• Guidance and coaching from an experienced instructor
• An opportunity to apply skills learned in course work
• A project in data analysis defined by you, for your own or for another organization

Why a Capstone project?

• Apply the skills you learned in class to a real-world, practical experience of your choice
• Show them you did it! There is nothing as powerful as proof that you have worked on a real-world problem for a real organization. Skills + experience = a strong resume builder
• Do it even better! Get coaching and feedback on a data project that you were going to do anyway
