Nuru
Software Developer - Graduate

This data science course has been very helpful. As a developer intern at Health Strat, I work on mobile and web apps, and this course has taught me a lot about data analysis and machine learning. I’ve learned new skills that I can use in my job, like working with data and solving problems.

Munyelele Levin
Data Science - Working Professional

This program has given me the needed foundation to lunch into my dream career. I came from an economics background and was scared of programming but with the ALX mantra of “Doing Hard Things” I gather the confidence to take things one day at a time and today, I am glad I did; ALX through the Data Science Program has planted a great seed that has already started bearing fruits. I am glad I took the decision to join ALX. Thank you for everything!✌🏽🤩
