Background and Rationale
Data is the new oil of the digital economy, and the ability to extract meaningful insights from it has become a core skill for businesses, governments, and professionals. Globally, industries are rapidly adopting data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) to drive evidence-based decision-making, optimize operations, and innovate faster.
However, in many parts of Africa, including Rwanda, there remains a significant skills gap in advanced data analytics and the practical application of AI tools. Professionals and organizations often lack the technical expertise to leverage modern platforms such as Python, Power BI, and generative AI tools, limiting their competitiveness in a data-driven global market.
