Thank you so much for this. Immediately had to go check out the site to apply but i noticed that it is sponsored but one need to pay a non refundable application fee (you didn't mention that sha 😊). Beautiful, thank you for this video, it helped alot.
Thank you so much for watching. I made this video 2 weeks ago; all ALX courses are free during that period. The administration fees were just introduced some days ago.
Thank you so much for this info, encouragement and tips. Please I am a medical doctor and i just registered for data analytics on alx, what's on your advice and tips on time management as regards to work and of what importance is this tech skill in my profession. Thanks
Thank you so much for watching. On how relevant data analytics is to your profession, I believe it's relevant and I've seen people who are data analysts and they work within the health field. Some call them health data analysts/scientists. On time management, the ALX curriculum is a lot and you really need to get your priorities right in order to meet up. I work full time and it can be exhausting combining ALX with work. What I do is study 2-3 hours on a workday and devote more time to studying on weekends.
So sorry about this, they just introduced this $300 admin fee some months ago. I didn't pay when enrolling in the course or making this video. But not to worry, there are hundreds of free and great courses out there - let me know if you need some recommendations.
@@mariamadebola: currently not working and i also just got a scholarship with them . Thinking of just continuing with my self learning. 300 dollars within a short period isnt feasible for me at the moment. Thank you again for the video marian
Thanks for this wonderful video, this is something I've been looking for. Please, I'd like to ask that is it compulsory to be present at the hub. Can I complete the course, say, the data analytics or data science course without stepping my foot at the hub? Thanks for the enlightenment once again.
Thanks for watching Moses. All the courses are remote now and you don’t have to attend the hub. I started with data analytics course but I switched to data science.
Congratulations on taking the 1st step🎉 my advice is to keep up with the deadlines, practice and showcase what you’re learning and most importantly connect with other learners in your cohort🤗
That's a tricky question, especially since I didn't pay for the course. However, I will list some factors that can help you make the decision of paying or not. If ALX is your first tech course, I would honestly suggest exploring free online courses first before committing financially. Other factors to consider include the time commitment and discipline required to complete the course. ALX is intense, requiring an average of 40 hours of study per week. Do you think your current situation will allow this level of commitment?
@@mariamadebolaI really appreciate your response! Thank you for that. Yes I am in their software engineering program though I have not been doing projects since last month because of school exam. Or please is there a way I can have a direct message like more conversation with you so I can tell you alot more privately.
Hi. Thank you for sharing your experience with the Data Analytics ALX program. I recently got accepted for a sponsorship and I inquired about the number of hours required weekly given that it's very important for me to know that given that I'm employed. The online support provided me with the information that the program requires 15 hours per week so I pair my fees based on that information because I can put in 15 hours per week. But I recently discovered that it's 40 hours per week and that would be too hard for me to do given my working schedule. Can you please share the accurate information on how many hours are required per week?
Hi, thanks for so much for watching the video. For my cohort, the data analytics program is divided into 2 phases. The first phase will require you to devote 35-40 hours per week and the second phase requires about 15 hours a week. However, I didn’t pay for the course as it’s sponsored by Mastercard foundation. It’s possible ALX will make some changes with the upcoming cohort. What I will advise is for you to reach out to their team on Instagram and have more clarity.
Hmmm, there are a lot of factors to consider and you necessarily do not have to know any skills. But you need to be committed to studying long hours in order to meet up with the assignments and projects deadlines.
Hi Mariam, i just bumped into your channel. I'm new to tech and know nothing at all, which would you advice i go for and yeah I'm bad at selflearning and would prefer a physical class or so like a bootcamp.
I will recommend exploring free courses offered by ALX or other organizations first - doing this will give you a feel of how intense ALX is before you make a financial commitment

@@mariamadebola Thanks for the swift reply
thank you so much please how do i grade others on ALX?
There’s a guideline that ALX shares with every learner. I use the guideline to grade another learner’s assignment submission.
Thank you for this. I just got accepted to the Alx community and Data Analytics is what is the course i applied for. What advice can you give me?
Congratulations on taking the 1st step🎉 my advice is to keep up with the deadlines, practice and showcase what you’re learning and most importantly connect with other learners in your cohort🤗
Can you recommend other free bootcamps , alx now charge admin fee
check out Coursera and Udacity for FREE courses. You might need to join data communities for FREE bootcamps
what is the programming language in this track?
Python & SQL
thank you so much
Thank you for this! Please does alx data analytics program really worth it for the $150 🤲

I'm sorry I can't help. You can follow this guy on Twitter, he does a lot of laptop giveaways; twitter.com/hackSultan
Do Hard Things in Flesh! 🎉
yessss to doing more hard things
Which skills will you say is should familiarize myself with before i start the program with ALX??
Hmmm, there are a lot of factors to consider and you necessarily do not have to know any skills. But you need to be committed to studying long hours in order to meet up with the assignments and projects deadlines.
Hi Mariam, i just bumped into your channel. I'm new to tech and know nothing at all, which would you advice i go for and yeah I'm bad at selflearning and would prefer a physical class or so like a bootcamp.
Hi Titilope, I would encourage you to consider attending bootcamps since you've mentioned that you struggle with self-study.
thanks for watching the video too; happy to help as you start this journey.
Hey, after passing the course what were the next steps you took? Does ALX support its student with entry level jobs or internships ?
They don’t directly offer you jobs but they provide platforms that can help you get one.
How can i manage as a learner residing outside Lagos ?
Unfortunately the ALX data analytics program is only available to those in Lagos😔
But if you need course recommendations, you can reach out to me on IG at mariam__adebola❤
Heyyy,
There's now an application fee of 150 dollars (200,000 naira+). Do you think it's still worth it?
I will recommend exploring free courses offered by ALX or other organizations first - doing this will give you a feel of how intense ALX is before you make a financial commitment
How can i enroll for the alx free course
You can check their free and paid courses here: www.alxafrica.com/about/
Hello, is this still true, "Please note that the ALX Data Course isn't free as of August 2023!"?
I am in the registration process for Data Analytics.
Sadly, it’s not free anymore. You have to pay $300 to access the program
@@mariamadebola Aside the administration fee?
The $300 is the administration fee and it's the only fee to pay@@joiedevivree
@@mariamadebola Very helpful. Thank you very much.
Happy to help @@joiedevivree
Hello, hope you are doing well! the course is no longer free?
Sadly, it’s not. They just introduced the fees some months ago. I didn’t pay for the course when I enrolled
@@mariamadebolaI am on week 10 in the ALX Foundations and weirdly they didn't make me pay the admin fee but people from my cohort paid
