Your Progression

A clear path from learning to demonstrating skills

Move forward when you can explain and build each stage, not simply when a class ends.

  1. Stage 01 · Foundations01

    SQL + Python + cloud basics

    Evidence: Query a dataset and process a CSV file.

  2. Stage 02 · Pipelines02

    ADF + storage + incremental loads

    Evidence: Rerun a load without creating duplicates.

  3. Stage 03 · Lakehouse03

    Databricks + PySpark + Delta

    Evidence: Turn raw data into validated business tables.

  4. Stage 04 · Analytics04

    Synapse + Fabric + Power BI

    Evidence: Model facts and dimensions; explain a KPI.

  5. Stage 05 · Delivery05

    Git + CI/CD + monitoring + security

    Evidence: Deploy a change and investigate a failed run.

  6. Stage 06 · Applied GenAI06

    RAG + APIs + evaluation + Vector DB

    Evidence: Demo a cited answer and explain its limits.
