Data Analyst and Data Scientist Shared Apprenticeships
Recent surveys have highlighted the need for data analysts and data scientists across the globe. The ongoing development of technological interactions means that valuable data is available but without the ability to interpret that data, the benefits that it can provide remain
under-utilised.
NSAR are working with industry to grow the UK’s Data Analyst and Data Scientist capability through two pilot shared apprenticeship programmes. The Data Analyst apprenticeship is a level 4 programme running over 2 years and provides an in-depth understanding of data analytics and how specific data sets can be interpreted and evaluated.
The Data Scientist apprenticeship is a level 6 (degree) programme running over 3 years and is designed to allow those individuals the capability to take data interpretation and use it to develop strategic programmes based on the findings.
