What learners practise

Practical scenarios and tasks designed to transfer into day-to-day work.

  • Interpret a dashboard and identify what matters (and what doesn’t)
  • Spot misleading metrics and ask better questions in meetings
  • Connect day-to-day decisions to revenue, cost, and efficiency outcomes
  • Choose the right metric for a decision instead of ‘tracking everything’
  • Explain performance clearly to stakeholders without data jargon

  • Commercial decisions rely on instinct over evidence

After

  • More confident decisions using data
  • Clearer conversations about performance
  • Better commercial judgement across teams
Not for: This pathway is not designed for specialist analysts or advanced statistical training.
