Academy

Teach your team to put data to work themselves.

Data, automation and AI only pay back when your own people can actually use them. The Academy trains your own staff to build reports, automate processes and put AI to work in their own department.

Data Panda Academy training
/ Three programmes, one approach

Pick the topic you want to tackle first.

Each programme is built for people who know their job, not for IT. The format is the same for all three: a short online primer, two focused days in person, and coaching back at the office so the learning sticks.

Programme 01 · Power BI

Reports that drive daily decisions.

Your team learns to clean up messy data, build Power BI reports colleagues actually open, and guide the change so dashboards turn into new habits.

Programme 02 · Process Automation

Remove the manual work yourself.

With Power Automate and the Microsoft stack you already own, your team learns to spot repetitive steps, map the flow, build the automation, and roll it out responsibly.

Programme 03 · AI

AI that actually makes it into real work.

From prompting Copilot well to building your own small apps with AI. Plus the security, ground rules and handover so AI keeps working when the champion moves on.

/ Who we train

For people who know their job, not for IT.

We train the people who actually live the process. The ones who feel the manual work, know where the data falls apart, and carry the change.

  • Built for finance, sales, operations, purchasing, HR, marketing, support. Not for developers, not for IT admins. The people who know the business inside out.
  • No prior Power BI, Power Automate or AI experience required. If your participant is already solving problems in Excel and ready for a step up, they're the right profile.
  • Group learning on purpose. Six to twelve people go through it together so the language, the habits and the results spread through the organisation instead of staying in one head.
  • Helping people pick it up is part of the curriculum. Building a report or a flow is only half the job. We also coach your team on how to get colleagues to actually use it.
/ How programmes run

A short online primer, then two focused days in person.

All three programmes use the same compact format. Participants arrive prepared and leave productive. The group stays small: six to twelve people.

i.

Online primer

About two hours, self-paced. Covers the basics of the domain so every participant is on the same starting line before the in-person days.

ii.

Day one, off-site

A full day at one of our inspiring training locations. Away from the office, away from email. Catering and venue are included.

iii.

Day two, at your office

Two to three weeks later, on your premises. Advanced topics, real questions from your business, plenty of room for feedback and new ideas.

The off-site day pulled our team out of their inbox. Two weeks later we were building our own reports, and they were better than the ones we used to wait for.

/ FAQ

Questions we get, straight answers.

Can we do more than one programme?

Yes. Many teams start with Power BI, then circle back for automation or AI once the first group is productive. We can plan them sequentially or run them in parallel for different groups.

How many people can join?

Each programme is designed for groups of six to twelve. Above twelve we split the group into separate sessions. Need a tailored package for a larger team? Just ask.

Who is it for?

Your own people from any department: finance, sales, operations, purchasing, HR, marketing, support. Participants often go back as champions and pull colleagues along with them.

Can I join as an individual?

Right now our programmes are built for companies training a group of their own people. If you want to join as an individual, send us a note. We'll let you know when open enrolments start.

Do you really offer a money-back guarantee?

Yes. If you feel we did not deliver the value we promised, we refund the full programme fee. No long conversations, no small print.
