Professional Data Analyst Bootcamp - Anytime Cohort Entrance Fee (Learn Python, SQL)

Our live cohorts are closed until further notice. To complete the curriculum on your own, get the checklist here.

Become a Certified Professional Data Analyst in 3 months (with 7 classmates and a 10-year industry pro coach).

Data Maverick HQ is a community where you learn six-figure data skills without leaving your home or signing up for a degree.

But unlike many data analytics programs, you won't pay for live instruction that has you thinking, "I paid thousands of dollars for this?" Instead, you'll learn using DataCamp—online courses that 2,500+ companies and 80% of the Fortune 1000 use to upskill their teams.

And unlike taking those courses by yourself, you'll have the option to join 3 accountability sessions weekly, access the expertise of our private coaches and graduates hunting for a job, plus build friendships with real people.

Our students bring their own lowest-priced DataCamp subscription and is not included in the price.

Stop procrastinating.

Finally build analytics skills in 2024.

Quiz: Is Data Maverick HQ right for you?

Have you wanted to try data analytics, but aren't sure the first step to take? Are you overwhelmed with the number of different platforms, strategies, and price points out there for learning to code?

Have you started to learn data analytics, but now feel stuck? Are you learning by yourself, spending an hour here and there, never making any serious progress?

Do you want to start learning, but aren't sure if you'll be good at it? Are you intimidated by coding? Do you find yourself hesitating to try to get a high-impact analytics career because you might fail?

If any of these sound familiar...

Then Data Maverick HQ was built for you.

The constraints you need to finally start learning data skills consistently.

All beginner data pros face the same 9 problems

• Distractions
• Procrastination
• Self-confidence
• Getting stuck on a problem
• Impostor syndrome
• Learning consistently
• Choosing a course
• Assuming you won't be good
• Finding time to learn

If you're reading this, chances are one (or more) of these problems are keeping you up at night (and keeping you from learning analytics).

And chances are, you know you should learn these skills — which is why you're on this page in the first place.

Whether it's to improve your thinking, accelerate your career trajectory, or help you pivot from that job you want more from, analytics is something that's been on your list for a while.

The accountability you've been missing.

Maybe you've tried data before. But, time and time again, you fall off. Something comes up. What starts off exciting becomes too difficult. And before you know it, you're back to square one.

But this is because there was no accountability.

‍You tried to start doing analytics on your own, almost doomed from the beginning.

But Data Maverick HQ solves that problem. You learn to analyze data alongside dozens of other learners all with the same goal as you: to work on your data analyzing skills consistently.

This creates an accountability so natural it will surprise you.

Learning analytics alone is hard.

Learning analytics with a community is easy.

There are 3 killers of learning data analytics.

Bad Habit #1: Picking bad courses. So many aspiring data analysts think all data courses are roughly created equal. They're not. Some courses teach you too much at once, all but guaranteeing you get frustrated and stuck. Having well-designed, software-assisted courses is crucial.

Bad Habit #2: Not setting a "costly" schedule. Have you ever started a course with the best intentions, but abandoning it because you skipped one learning day you mentally committed to, and then another day, and another day? Many learning plans have been ruined by undefined schedules that don't have social or monetary costs for skipping days.

Bad Habit #3: Not getting your questions answered. Have you ever started a course and stopped because you got stuck on a complicated video or exercise? Taking an online course without having access to a coach means getting unstuck is hard and time consuming. It is easy to abandon your plan then because trying to move past it alone isn't worth the effort and may not even work.

Click "I want this!" to secure your spot onboard the next cohort

Do three 3-hour accountability sessions per week (3 hours each) to complete 20 industry-recognized data courses in 3 months.

Binge studying for 7 hours on a Saturday (as many bootcamps and workshops do) is a poor strategy for learning analytics.

Throwing a zillion new concepts into your brain just to forget most of it by next weekend?

No thanks.

Instead, you should start smaller. 3-hour accountability sessions are an ambitious and sustainable pace I've found in my time learning and teaching online. One single new concept introduced per session. And, instead of hour-long lectures, you'll watch five-minute videos followed by interactive exercises, as per DataCamp's industry-leading instruction style (my preferred course provider).

During our bootcamp, you'll study 3 times per week to keep your data muscle fresh.

How our accountability sessions work

For the kickoff call on Monday, you'll meet me and your fellow cohort mates, then I'll onboard you to our program. Then every Wed and Fri (and every Mon, Wed, and Fri until you finish), we do optional 3-hour accountability sessions that go like this:

• Voice call hello, progress update, and goal-setting (6 PM - 6:10 PM)
• Silent study for 1.5 hours (Q&A forums open)
• Text progress update and goal-setting in Discord chat box (7:30 PM)
• Silent study for 1.5 hours (Q&A forums open)
• Text update at the end, summarizing your progress (8:50 - 9:00 PM)

For learners that are busy during the scheduled times, one of our coaches will send you a message to set your study goals for the day, and ask you for a progress update at the end of the day. If you have questions on what you learned, you post them in the chat forum to be answered by one of our coaches or graduates.

Frequently asked questions

• Where is the curriculum? The curriculum is available here.
• What do the courses in the curriculum cost? The prices of some of my recommended courses vary depending on your billing location and how long you take to finish them. For folks in the United States, the courses will be $117 total if you finish in 3 months (3 months of a DataCamp Premium subscription - note: affiliate link that supports our community). Most of our members sign up for DataCamp's annual subscription which is frequently on sale for $150.
• How long does it take? There are 90 hours of content in the curriculum. That is focused study time, so not including breaks. One student who had no Python experience prior and had an undergraduate STEM degree who studied 3x a week and attended all of the sessions finished in 3 months. We recommend you study 1 hour on your own on Tuesday and Thursday outside of our group sessions if you want to complete the program faster.
• Is it self-paced? Yes, you can complete the curriculum on your own schedule. We also have scheduled cohorts where you can progress through the curriculum with other members at the same time. Students in our cohorts report higher success in actually completing the courses.
• I want to study with you, but I need to use different courses. Is that okay? Yes, one of our members is currently using Dataquest. He still joins for the check-ins for accountability in his other courses.
• Can this be done with a full-time job? Yes, our students often complete our program with a full-time job. If you are working 40 hours per week, nine hours beyond that for our three 3-hour group accountability sessions each week is the most we recommend for most people. I would not recommend joining if you work more than 40 hours per week.
• Can this be done at a longer pace than 3 months? Yes. See the "What happens if I don't complete the curriculum in 3 months?" section above.
• What should I learn before joining? There are no prerequisites for my curriculum other than basic math skills (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division).
• How do I sign up for a cohort? To save your spot in a specific cohort (listed above), reply to your email receipt with "March cohort", "May cohort", etc.
• When do cohorts run? A new cohort starts every third month with 3-hour coach-led group accountability sessions scheduled every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
• What if I can't make the group sessions at the schedule time? No problem. You still get the coach + community accountability because one of our coaches will send you a message to set your study goals (what and when) each Mon, Wed, and Fri, and ask you for a progress update at the end of the day.
• How will we get in contact for the accountability messages? Discord.
• What time will you contact me to set the study goals and then check on my progress? I send out an accountability post to the group at the start of the accountability session that you will reply to. The people attending the call live reply to these too. These happen Monday, Wednesday, Friday. At the end, I send out an accountability post where you update us on your progress at the end of your day. If you have questions on what you learned, you post them in the chat forum to be answered by our coaches or our 3 Months to 6 Figures job attracting clients.
• Can I join 3 Months to 6 Figures after I graduate? Yes, with your first week of that program free after graduating from this program.
