Montclair State University in New Jersey joins the list of lucky universities to be part of the Qlik Academic Program! Montclair State has a significant importance to us at Qlik as some of our employees are alumni and our CEO Mike Capone is a board of trustees member. Shortly after joining the program, Qlik made two visits to the campus, and with the help of our friends and Partner SDG Group, we presented to graduate students in a Data Visualization course and we hosted a training workshop to graduate and undergraduate students who are interested in visualizations and analytics. The visits were a success and many of the students have since joined the program to get access to our amazing resources such as free software, free training, and most importantly our Qualification exam which they can use to show future employers they have applied knowledge and fundamental Qlik Sense skills. We look forward to visiting again in the fall when we can share the program with even more students! ...View More
