What graduates are saying

Aqsa Shuja

Data Analytics Program

“Generation has changed my life for the better! I started working with Accenture as a PMO/Junior data analyst just a few days after graduating from the DA program. From there things started working out for me! I am financially independent now. My self-esteem and confidence have improved. I can choose and make decisions for myself without looking unto others for approval. The way I look at myself has changed. It’s like a solid foundation has been laid for success in my new career.”
