Data Analysis with Python Certification

About this course

This certification moves from general Python programming into the specific libraries used for real data analysis work: NumPy for numerical computing, Pandas for data manipulation, and Matplotlib for visualization. Learners complete five real-world data analysis projects — including analyzing demographic data and medical examination data — that mirror the kind of work junior data analysts actually do.

It's the natural follow-up to freeCodeCamp's Scientific Computing with Python certification, taking general programming competency and applying it specifically to the data analysis toolchain most data analyst and junior data scientist roles expect. Combined with the earlier Python certification, it forms a complete, entirely free path from zero programming experience to applied data analysis competency.

What you'll learn

Manipulate and clean data using Pandas
Perform numerical computing with NumPy
Create data visualizations using Matplotlib
Complete real-world data analysis projects from raw data to insights
Build a portfolio of verifiable, project-based data analysis work

Frequently asked questions

It's recommended but not strictly enforced — you'll move faster with prior Python experience, since this certification assumes comfort with basic programming concepts.
This is free, Python/code-focused, and project-based with no certificate fee. Google's certificate is broader (covers SQL, Tableau, spreadsheets too) and includes career-services support, but requires a paid subscription for the certificate.
It's a credible signal of applied Python data skills, particularly when paired with the GitHub portfolio of completed projects, though it carries less brand recognition than a paid professional certificate.
