HDip in Data Analytics - Prospects?

    I've been accepted to the Springboard HDip in data analytics with NCI (Springboard) and I've a couple of days to make up my mind and accept the offer.

    I'm fairly numerate, but have novice coding knowledge, so I'd be starting from a relatively low base. My worry is that alongside a baby and a full time demanding job (which I'm hoping to exit!) that it would all be too much.

    If it were a case where I had a clear goal in front of me, then it might make the effort and late nights that bit easier - so my query is, what are the prospects for someone finishing that qualification? I appreciate that following a career change, it would be an entry level position, but what demand and salary might I expect if I somehow complete the course?

    Hi, I’m just wondering how you have been getting on with the course? Are you finding it good?
    I am considering applying for the part time course which starts later this month. I have been a SAHM for the last 3 years and hoping to make a change of career. Do you mind me asking what are most of the students backgrounds taking this course? My own background is in Science.
