Why Qlik Makes It Easy
As data literacy and analytics becomes essential across higher education, many faculty want to introduce analytics into their courses—but hesitate for one simple reason: time.
For most professors, the challenge isn’t interest—it’s practicality. Traditional analytics tools often require:
Significant time to learn and teach
Building course materials from scratch
Managing software access and technical issues
Justifying tools that don’t clearly align with real-world outcomes
When added together, these hurdles can make analytics feel like more work than impact. Qlik’s Academic Program is designed with faculty realities in mind.
Professors get:
Ready-to-use course materials(syllabi, labs, and assessments)
Easy, cloud-based accesswith no cost or complex setup
Flexible integration, from a single module to a full course
Industry-relevant analytics toolsstudents actually use in the workforce
Instead of asking faculty to redesign their courses, Qlik fits seamlessly into what they already teach. Adding an analytics tool doesn’t have to be difficult.
Qlik removes the biggest barriers—time, complexity, and curriculum creation—making it one of the easiest analytics programs for professors to adopt and teach.

Recently, Kristu Jayanti University included the Qlik Academic Program in their curriculum. These are exciting times since students shall be able to earn credits once they complete training and qualifications/certifications offered under the academic program.
In the ever-evolving landscape of academic collaboration, Qlik has carved out a unique niche. Recently, the Qlik Academic Program has been gaining momentum in countries like the UK and Germany.
One of Qlik's standout successes has been its ability to foster cross-border academic partnerships. By bringing together educators and students from the UK and Germany, the program has created a vibrant exchange of ideas and best practices.
Come join Qlik’s Principal Solution Architect, Stephen Page, as he gives a technical talk exploring Qlik’s powerful analytics capabilities. I’ll also be sharing an overview of the Qlik Academic Program—how educators and students can access free analytics software, training, and qualifications.
Artificial intelligence is changing our world at lightning speed. Everywhere we look, new tools and technologies are being built to make things smarter and faster.
A recent New York Times article, What Wall Street Sees in the Data Center Boom, shows just how massive this transformation is. Trillions of dollars are being invested in data centers, the “brains” that power AI. But the article also reminds us that all this progress comes with a cost: higher energy and water use, pressure on local communities, and even the risk of a financial bubble if this growth is not sustainable.
Reading it made me stop and think:Are we investing as much in understanding data as we are in building it?
Here at Qlik, we believe technology alone doesn’t make the world better, people do. And people can only make good decisions with data if they know how to read it, question it, and use it responsibly.
That’s what the Qlik Academic Program is all about. We want every student and educator,no matter where they are or what they teach,to have the chance to learn how to use data to solve real problems.
Imagine if every student learning about AI today also asked:
How can we make technology that helps the planet, not harms it?
Are we designing systems that serve everyone or just a few?
What does it mean to use data responsibly in a world driven by algorithms?
Those questions are where true innovation begins.
As the article points out, many companies are now rethinking how technology can drive progress that truly benefits everyone. That’s the same vision behind our Academic Program: to democratize knowledge, bridge the data gap, and empower people everywhere to use analytics for social good.
The AI revolution will be defined not only by algorithms and data centers, but by how wisely we use the data we already have.
Let’s make sure we are building not just the infrastructure for machines, but the understanding for humankind.
The Qlik Academic Program helps make this possible,giving educators, students, researchers, and universities everywhere free access to Qlik Sense, online training, and certifications to use data ethically and effectively.
