"One of the things I am doing is to understand at a high level each of the 11 components of the Framework. I made a poster of the wheel and posted it in my office.

I've found a new algorithm to solve a problem at work we've been struggling with for a few months, been better able to use IT's language in asking for desired database changes, and found that my boss's boss can understand the language I've learned and finally approve some of the things we want to try! Definitely recommend using it as a basis for studying for improving job performance (which I hope will lead to $$$)."

"The Data Science Email Bootcamp is not only informative – it's insightful and organized. More Data Science content should be this entertaining.

I also copied the contents of each of the emails I received in the Study Plan into that same doc. I typically reviewed that notes file before each practice exam.

"All in all, the Study Plan is great and keeps content top of mind."

"I want to thank you for the CDMP prep materials and courses you offer — I used them when I took the CDMP a year and a half ago and they were excellent!"

"We're working and learning from home on a daily basis right now, which can be overwhelming for some, but having a daily reminder, which is an interesting read and helpful cheat sheet, can be truly rewarding.
