Just like Neo from the Matrix, you are the chosen one! Congratulations! We are very excited – and can’t wait – to transform you into a passionate analyst. Hopefully, so are you! The start is still some time away, but we already have some assignments into which you can put your teeth 🤓.

Assignments, Part 1: Tools

We need you to create a Slack account. On our Slack Workspace, you can already meet your classmates and ask for help in completing the other assignments.

If not, please let us know. No idea what Slack is? Watch the following short video: 🔗What is Slack? Afterward, we will add you to your class channel. See you there!

Assignments, Part 2: Courses

Your background in analysis and the domain of software development might be higher or lower than those of other candidates, that’s perfectly fine. To minimize that gap, we highly recommend – and strongly encourage you – to complete the courses listed below before the start of the training. The more effort you put into these courses – the smoother your start will be. For some, these courses will be nothing more than a repetition. Others will have to work harder to complete them. Stuck? A simple question? Ask (help) on our Slack (and no, this time, it’s not a test 😇).
