## Overview

Financial technology is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the industry, and this bootcamp is built to get you ready for it. Through hands-on projects and one-on-one mentoring with expert instructors, you will develop practical skills in Python, SQL, machine learning, and data visualization, all applied to real-world financial challenges. You will start with Python fundamentals, data types, and structures, then move into querying databases with SQL, building dashboards, creating statistical models, and applying Python to financial analysis topics like portfolio management and financial ratios. By the time you finish, you will have a portfolio that showcases your abilities and the confidence to pursue entry-level roles as a Financial Analyst or Data Scientist.

No prior experience with Python, data science, or data visualization is required to enroll, making this bootcamp accessible to beginners. That said, participants should have a working familiarity with financial concepts such as NPV, IRR, and stock fundamentals. If you do not have a finance background, reach out after registration and we will point you toward a free on-demand guide to get you up to speed. With FinTech accounting for a growing share of the financial services sector, the skills you will build here are not only practical but increasingly sought after by employers.
