In this capstone course, you’ll demonstrate your ability to solve problems relevant to data-related roles, which you can then showcase in your portfolio and share with prospective employers. You will apply the skills you’ve learned throughout this data manager program with this hands-on culminating project.

The project provides you the opportunity to solidify your proficiency when working with data and integrate them into a single project. You’ll apply many industry-specific tools and industry-standard best practices with a real-world data integration scenario using an ETL process. As part of this process, you utilize relational databases and SQL queries. You’ll also manipulate data using spreadsheets and BI tools to create visualizations and a dashboard to readily communicate your data insights. We recommend that you complete all the previous courses in this Professional Certificate before starting this course.

In this module, you will work with Customer Data and Transaction Data to prepare them for advanced analysis. You will begin by analyzing the data set to identify key fields and understand its structure. Next, you will clean the data by removing duplicates, handling missing values, and correcting inconsistencies using Excel. During the transformation phase, you will create new data fields and categorize information to uncover customer segments and transaction patterns. Additionally, you will focus on visualizing the data to extract actionable insights. You will use Excel’s charting tools to create bar charts, line graphs, and pie charts. To ensure all tasks are completed accurately, each lab includes a checklist, which verifies that you have completed all essential steps.

Frequently asked questions

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:

The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Certificate, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
