Free skills gap assessment
Data analysts pull data from a company's systems, clean it up, and answer questions such as which products sell best or why customers leave. They work in SQL, spreadsheets and dashboard tools, and often Python, and then explain what they found in plain language.
It suits people who are curious, patient with messy information and enjoy telling a clear story with numbers. SQL is the skill employers ask for most, and it can be learned for free.
First roles are junior data analyst or data analyst. From there people move to senior analyst, analytics engineer, data scientist or a team lead role.

A guide, not a pass mark. Your Skills Gap Assessment shows how ready you are for each level and what to work on.
You answer yes or no to short statements about what you have actually done. Each statement belongs to one of 10 skill areas, and each area is weighted by how often employers ask for it, so the score reflects what jobs need.
