Join the way that fits. Take the complete five days, take Day 1 on its own as a foundations workshop, or join from Day 2 if you are already fluent with PivotTables.
Who it's for. HR professionals, business partners and managers who want evidence behind people decisions. No statistics or coding background is needed to start.
Speak the language of HR metrics, clean a messy 500-person export, analyse it with PivotTables and formulas, and build your first Power BI dashboard. Ends with a realistic case study: testing a manager's gut-feel claim against six months of absence data.
Stop rebuilding reports by hand. Power Query records your cleaning; the data model connects tables; DAX measures recalculate for every filter, with time intelligence for period comparisons. Close the day with an executive attrition dashboard.
The honest analysis day. Distributions over averages, correlation without overreach, segmentation and cohorts, significance in plain terms, and driver analysis. Then diagnose a turnover spike hiding inside a healthy company number.
Python from zero in the browser. pandas, then a working attrition model judged on precision and recall, and a full session on the ethics of prediction: bias, explainability, and keeping a human in the loop.
Meridian Health is losing people faster than it can hire. The CEO asks where, why, who is next, and what to do. One dataset, the full journey, a five-minute presentation, and structured feedback against a clear rubric.
After the five days, three one-hour coaching sessions over three months. Each participant chooses a real people-data project at their organisation - a dashboard, a turnover diagnosis, an attrition model - and we coach them from scoping to a result their leaders can act on.
