The Qlik Academic Program has recently reached a new milestone. Since 2012 when the program was born, we have now had involvement from students and academics in 80 different countries! This has encompassed involvement from 1,390 Universities and over 7,000 students.
This is a great achievement for the entire organisation as we continue to progress towards our vision of a data-literate world, where everyone can use data to solve their most challenging problems. Currently only 21% of 16-24 year-olds deem themselves to be data literate, and the Academic Program is an excellent resource for bridging this skills gap.
The program is open to students and academics from all accredited Universities globally and is completely free of charge. Members get access to free Qlik software and training resources, as well as Qlik Sense qualifications which can really help students to stand out from the crowd in their job applications. Professors are able to build our content directly into their teaching, including product agnostic lecture materials on theories and concepts in analytics.

Please help us to spread the word on this invaluable free resource from Qlik, to help us to move ever closer to our vision of a data literate world, one student at a time!
