What changed
The Data Analyst Agent in Qlik Answers now handles semantic search, expression building, and chart generation within a single, unified flow. When you ask a question, the Answers Agent and the Data Analyst Agent work together to deliver your response, and you'll see both reflected in the interface as Qlik Answers responds.
The practical effect: Qlik Answers can take your question, figure out what to search for, build the right expression, and generate the right visualization in a single connected process rather than as separate steps. Complex questions, the kind that involve comparisons across dimensions, multiple measures, or specific time periods, benefit the most because the agent can hold the full shape of your question in mind while deciding how to answer it.
See it in action
Here's an example of how the same question flows through Qlik Answers. Previously, the response involved several specialized agents handing work back and forth. With the updated architecture, the question is resolved through a more direct flow, and you'll see the response come back faster.
Try it yourself! Ask any question you often repeat, especially one with comparisons or multiple parts. You'll notice Qlik Answers gets to the response faster.
What this means for you
You will see the difference the next time you open Qlik Answers, but everything else you rely on in Qlik Answers (your data, your spaces, your permissions, or the way you ask questions) will continue to work exactly as it did before the update went live.
What's next
We'll continue to evolve how the agents work as we add new capabilities, and we'll keep sharing what's changing along the way.
We'd love to hear how the updated experience feels in your day-to-day use. Reach out to your Qlik contact or share your thoughts in the community.

Welcome, Qlik Academic Program Educator Ambassador 2026: Manikant Roy!

Show MoreI feel pleased to introduce Manikant Roy, Assistant Professor, Business Analytics at the Jaipuria Institute of Management in Noida, India.
Manikant’s journey with Qlik began long before he entered the academia world. It was at the start of his professional career in 2012 as a Business Intelligence Consultant that he worked extensively as a developer using QlikView. This early exposure to analytics and data visualization helped him understand the importance of data-driven decision-making in organizations.
In 2016, he became associated with the Qlik Academic Program through interactions with Qlik Academic Program Manager, Pankaj Muthe. That connection encouraged him to bring Qlik technologies into the academic environment, and since then he has actively advocated the use of analytics and data literacy in higher education.
Over the years, Manikant has incorporated both QlikView and Qlik Sense into his teaching. He developed semester-long courses for MBA, MSc, and BTech students covering areas such as Business Analytics, Data Visualization, and Business Intelligence. His teaching approach follows a progressive learning path where students begin with Qlik Data Literacy concepts, then move into Qlik Data Analytics fundamentals, and finally applied these concepts using Qlik Sense for business analysis and dashboard development.
Through this hands-on approach, students learn how to visualize data effectively, communicate insights, and make data-informed decisions. They use Qlik tools to develop dashboards, analyze real-world datasets, and complete academic projects and master’s dissertations. To date, he has trained more than 400 students in analytics and data visualization using Qlik technologies.
The impact of this learning has been very encouraging. Many students have secured internships and full-time roles in analytics and technology domains after learning these skills. Several alumni have progressed into senior technical positions in the industry, including technical leadership roles. One example is Anurag Chaudhary, a former student who is now working as a Tech Lead in a leading organisation. Such success stories highlight the importance of strong analytics education and practical exposure to modern BI tools.
Beyond the classroom, Manikant has actively conducted workshops, faculty development programs, and mentoring sessions across various colleges and universities in India. He regularly speaks about Business Intelligence and analytics using Qlik technologies at student events, hackathons, and academic forums. These engagements help students and educators understand how analytics tools can be applied to solve real-world business challenges.
At Jaipuria Institute of Management, Qlik technologies are integrated into the Business Analytics curriculum as an essential component of classroom learning. He encourages students to pursue certifications offered through the Qlik Academic Program, and more than 30 students from the institute have already completed certifications in Data Literacy and Data Analytics.
Looking ahead to 2026, Manikant’s goal is to further strengthen students’ ability to work with data and apply analytics concepts to real-world scenarios. The world today is more dynamic than ever before, and continuous learning is the key to staying relevant. By engaging students in practical analytics projects, real datasets, and professional certifications, his aim is to help them build the confidence and skills required to thrive in the data-driven economy.
From his perspective, being data-driven—both personally and professionally—is no longer a luxury but a necessity. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and analytics technologies, organizations are increasingly relying on data to guide decisions. Manikant further adds, “Students must learn how to read, interpret, and communicate insights from data. Developing the ability to “read, write, and argue with data” is an essential skill for the next generation of professionals”
On a personal note, Manikant lives in Noida in the Delhi NCR region of India. He often says that he is a teacher by choice, not by chance. Over the years, he has mentored students from diverse backgrounds, helping them develop skills and prepare for careers in analytics and technology. Manikant strongly believes that education is one of the most meaningful ways to uplift individuals and contribute to society.
In addition to his academic work, he has been involved in mentoring initiatives for young learners. Manikant has been recognized as a “Gems of Mentor India” by the Atal Innovation Mission under NITI Aayog for mentoring school students and encouraging them to develop digital and innovation skills aligned with the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047.
Outside the classroom, he enjoys gardening and reading classical literature. Manikant is particularly interested in philosophical reflections about life and society. Whenever possible, he enjoys taking long drives with school friends on weekends, which gives him time to reflect and reconnect.
Manikant says, “I feel truly honored to be recognized as a Qlik Educator Ambassador after many years of advocating analytics education. Through this role, I look forward to connecting with educators across the world, learning from global best practices, and contributing to the promotion of data literacy. Empowering people with the ability to understand and use data is one of the most important educational missions of our time”
We welcome Manikant to the Educator Ambassador Class of 2026 and wish him all the best.

Qlik, Guatemala, and a Lesson He Learned Twice: Welcome Gabriel Geovanni Navassi...
Walk Into His Classroom Students walk in thinking business intelligence isn't for them. It belongs to the data scientists and tech specialists. Then s... Show MoreWalk Into His Classroom
Students walk in thinking business intelligence isn't for them. It belongs to the data scientists and tech specialists.
Then something shifts.
They start exploring data on their own. Asking real questions. Finding insights that matter. That moment when someone realizes they can actually think analytically, changes everything.
Gabriel teaches Business Intelligence, Data Mining, Analytics, Operations, and Negotiation at Universidad Mariano Gálvez and Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala, always connecting theory to real challenges in business and management. At San Carlos, he recently expanded into teaching People Analytics in their HR master's program, a role that's grown his reach considerably.
But Gabriel doesn't teach software. He teaches confidence.
"I increasingly teach analytics not only as a technical subject, but as a decision-making capability that any professional can develop," he says.
His classes are hands-on. Students work with real scenarios: HR datasets for hiring decisions, performance metrics for strategy, problems they'll actually face at work. They compare Qlik, Tableau, Power BI, and Excel, not to memorize features, but to understand what each does best.
Qlik holds a special place in his teaching. "It's so easy to work with that students use it for their own first findings in data." The accessibility matters. No technical walls. No endless setup. Students get to the insight fast, and that's when confidence builds. For the working professionals in his classes? Qlik becomes real competitive advantage in their current roles.
The Lesson He Learned Twice
Gabriel carries one hard-earned piece of wisdom he shares with every student:
When you first use Qlik at your job, don't use it for your most important decision.
Here's why: People get distracted by the shiny new tool. They notice the interface, the visualizations, the novelty. They're not thinking about what the data actually means. That divided attention weakens your credibility.
Gabriel learned this the hard way, twice. Early in his career, he presented Qlik findings for critical decisions, and people got caught up watching the tool instead of listening to the analysis.
So now he tells students: use Qlik first for lower-stakes presentations. Build familiarity. Once people trust it, then bring it to your most important decisions. By then, they'll see past the software and actually hear what your data is saying.
What's Coming in 2026
Gabriel is launching a professional development program for alumni. Not a one-time graduation experience, but a real pathway for people to come back and keep learning.
He's starting with Data Literacy and using Qlik as the entry point. "I chose Qlik for the introduction in the first stage of the program specially because it is an excellent choice for Data Literacy." Qlik's simplicity makes it the perfect gateway for professionals returning to sharpen their skills. No barriers. No intimidation. Just clarity.
His vision for 2026 extends beyond that too. He's weaving generative AI into his teaching, so students understand how emerging tech enhances analytical thinking. He's building learning experiences that stay hands-on, tied to real challenges, focused on actually turning insights into action.
"I have continued growing as both an educator and a consultant, especially through projects related to training systems, curriculum design, and capacity-building for institutions." For Gabriel, this work is personal.
Why He Became an Ambassador
Gabriel's decision to join the program is natural.
"I genuinely believe tools like Qlik can change the way people learn, think, and make decisions. As a professor, I have always wanted my students to go beyond memorizing concepts and actually experience what it means to explore data, discover patterns, and generate insight."
He also sees something bigger in the role: a chance to represent educators across Latin America. To show that analytics education isn't just a North American story. It's transforming classrooms in Guatemala and far beyond.
Welcome, Gabriel
What makes Gabriel's story worth celebrating isn't credentials or course counts. It's that he redesigned his life around what matters, and he's using that clarity to open doors for others—students discovering analytics for the first time, alumni reconnecting with the field, and a region filled with educators like him who are transforming how Latin America thinks about analytics and data.
Because this is the story of Latin America's analytics future. It's happening in classrooms in Guatemala. It's happening with educators like Gabriel who refuse to accept that world-class analytics education happens somewhere else.
Gabriel isn't slowing down. He's expanding.
The real work is just beginning.

Welcome Back Alexander Flaig – Qlik Educator Ambassador for 2026!

“Since our last conversation, another student landed a role in data governance after engaging with the data literacy content in the Academic Program”, Alexander shares. “They found the Qlik learning experience fascinating — and it directly influenced their career direction”.
It’s a simple but powerful example of how exposure to real tools and real concepts can open doors — especially in emerging areas like data governance.
While Qlik remains a core part of the curriculum, Alexander is now taking things a step further.
He’s redesigning his course from the ground up — with AI at the centre.
“I’ve already started integrating more AI into the course, and the next iteration will be a full redesign”, he explains. “It’s something I want to refine through experience, but I believe it will fundamentally change how students learn analytics”.
His goal is clear: to develop business analysts who can work with AI — while still understanding the logic behind the tools they use.
He also brings an honest perspective on the challenges facing higher education today.
“There was already a growing gap between what universities teach and what the job market needs. Now, with AI, we’re seeing something even bigger — knowledge itself is becoming more accessible, and some entry-level roles are starting to disappear”.
Rather than seeing this as a threat, Alexander sees it as a necessary shift.
He compares it to aviation:
“Modern planes rely heavily on autopilot, but pilots still need to know how to fly. In the same way, students need to understand analytics tools — even if AI handles part of the process”.
That balance — between automation and understanding — is becoming central to how he teaches.
New focus: Agentic analytics and what comes next
Looking ahead, Alexander expects analytics to evolve alongside wider changes in the economy.
“With the rise of agentic systems, we’ll likely see new types of KPIs focused on automated or agent-driven processes. This will also lead to the emergence of ‘agent analytics’ as a field”.
By introducing these ideas early, he’s not just teaching students how to use today’s tools — he’s preparing them for what’s coming next.
Alongside his teaching, Alexander has also taken on a new role within the university as an AI Ambassador.
Here, he acts as a central point of expertise, supporting how AI is introduced and managed across programmes.
“One of my key priorities is helping ensure programmes become ‘AI-proof’ — either by integrating AI effectively or by designing ways to manage its use in academic settings”.
After a strong experience last year, returning to the Qlik Educator Ambassador programme was a natural next step. Through this role, Alexander continues to expand awareness of Qlik in academia while deepening his own expertise.
With a clear focus on AI, a commitment to practical learning, and a forward-looking approach to education, Alexander represents a new generation of educators — those who are not just adapting to change, but actively shaping it.

Show MoreWithin the Master’s Program in Information Systems, Blerim`s students enrolled in the mandatory Business Intelligence course explore the foundations of data-driven decision-making. The course introduces a broad spectrum of business intelligence concepts, including technologies, applications, and processes that allow organizations to gather, store, access, and analyze data effectively. A strong emphasis is placed on practical applications, enabling students to work with real-world datasets and develop analytics applications that support decision-making and generate actionable insights. For example, by integrating data from sources such as Inside Airbnb, students build interactive apps that uncover patterns, explore trends, and provide meaningful recommendations based on data.
Hands-on learning is central to Blerim’s teaching philosophy. Rather than relying solely on theoretical explanations, his courses encourage students to work directly with data, perform data exploration, design analytical workflows, and develop solutions to real-world challenges. This approach allows students to strengthen both their analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities while gaining experience with tools commonly used in industry.
Blerim mentions that students also have the opportunity to earn industry-recognized qualifications that complement their academic studies. Through partnerships with analytics platforms such as Qlik and KNIME, his students can gain valuable credentials that enhance their professional profiles.
Blerim also emphasizes the importance of connecting academic learning with industry practice. His courses regularly incorporate real business cases and insights from practitioners to ensure students gain exposure to real-world analytics challenges. He points out that guest lectures and workshops play an important role in this process. Recently, Stavros Orfanoudakis from Qlik delivered a workshop in the Business Intelligence course, sharing insights on the evolution of modern data platforms—from traditional data warehouses to open Lakehouse architecture. The session explored current challenges in data integration and demonstrated how organizations manage data on a scale.
“The lecture sparked strong engagement from students, many of whom continued the discussion even after the session ended, highlighting their interest in modern analytics architectures and industry practices.” Blerim says.
Beyond the classroom, Blerim is also actively involved in the global Qlik community. In 2025, he attended the Qlik Luminary Meetup 2025 in Lund where members of the Qlik ecosystem such as MVPs, Educator Ambassadors and Luminaries gathered to exchange ideas and discuss the latest developments in analytics. During the event, Blerim contributed as a subject matter expert in one of the workshops, collaborating with fellow educators, partners, and analytics professionals.
Through his continued involvement in the Qlik Academic Program, Blerim remains committed to preparing students for a future where data literacy, analytics, and artificial intelligence play an increasingly central role in decision-making. By combining academic foundations with hands-on analytics projects, industry collaboration, and qualifications he continues to equip students with the skills needed to succeed in the evolving data-driven economy.
We are proud to have Blerim Emruli as a longstanding member of the Qlik Educator Ambassador community and look forward to seeing the continued impact of his work at Lund University and beyond.

Upcoming changes to how CSS for custom Qlik Analytics themes is handled
Qlik is introducing changes to how custom themes in Qlik Analytics applications are handled, which may impact your CSS-styled themes if they include u... Show MoreQlik is introducing changes to how custom themes in Qlik Analytics applications are handled, which may impact your CSS-styled themes if they include unsupported CSS modifications. This also applies to other means of modifying the CSS, such as the sheet input box, the Multi KPI CSS input, or any other 3rd party extension that allows CSS input.
These changes will impact both Qlik Cloud Analytics and Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.
For more information about custom themes, see Uploading and managing themes.
Why are these changes being made?
These changes improve how theming works in Qlik Analytics applications, which will enable us to deliver better-looking dashboards and generally enhanced theming.
What is being changed?
We’re restructuring theme settings:
- Removal of base card CSS overrides
- A theme with the _cards:true setting gets the base styles imported as JSON into the theme
- Removal of extra title padding for objects without title in a cards theme
- Replace the following with theme JSON settings:
- padding: applied on object level; the gap between border and object
- margin: applied on sheet level; the gap between objects
And we are adding new themes:
- Foundation (default)
- New Horizon
How can I verify if my themes are affected?
- Open any app that uses your custom theme and append the following to the URL: /feature/CLIENT_TLV_1804_LESS_CARDS
This will enable the flag to run your themes with the changes before they are released. - Verify that everything looks as you expect it to
- Review your browser's developer tools for any eventual JavaScript errors
Future-proof your themes
We’ve compiled a list of supported styling options for you that can already replace the need for custom CSS. See Obsolete CSS modifications.
Additionally, see the table below for an overview of the new theme properties that you can use in your theme instead of CSS. You will first need to enable the /feature/CLIENT_TLV_1804_LESS_CARDS flag to see them in effect in the application.
Theme Option Path in theme JSON Example Sheet background sheet.backgroundColor
"sheet": { "backgroundColor": "#f2f2f2"
}Sheet margin sheet.margin
"sheet": { "margin": "10px"
}Object paddings object.padding
"object": { "padding": "20px" // or "10px 10px 5px 10px"
}Borders
object.borderWidth
"object": { "borderWidth": "1px"
}object.borderColor
"object": { "borderColor": "#d9d9d9"
}
object.borderRadius
"object": { "borderWidth": "3px"
}Shadows object.shadow.boxShadow
"object": {
"shadow": {
"boxShadow": "0px 4px 10px 0px", "boxShadowColor": "#d9d9d9"
}
}object.shadow.boxShadowColor
"object": {
"shadow": {
"boxShadow": "0px 4px 10px 0px", "boxShadowColor": "#d9d9d9"
}
}To give you more context: Document Object Model (DOM) selectors in custom CSS are not a supported pattern. While they can be helpful for customizing the look and feel of applications, the DOM is subject to change at any time. To provide your feedback, raise tickets on the Qlik Ideation portal when you need custom CSS customization. This helps prioritize supported customization options to add to the platform.
What action do I need to take and when?

Show MoreAngelika is based in the Netherlands and teaches at the University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam (HVA). She remains the driving force behind the Minor in Data & Analytics, where she seamlessly embeds Qlik into her curriculum. Her mission is clear: to empower students with the tools, knowledge, and confidence they need to find their own path in the ever-evolving data and AI landscape. This year we even have a Guest lecture from Igor Alcantara Qlik Partner Ambassador and Qlik MVP live in Amsterdam, where he will be attending live and give a lecture about Qlik Predict and Qlik Answers. The power of the Qlik Community stands out where we all can work together and help students to grow in the field of Data &AI.
In 2025 and 2026, Angelika focused on developing various trainings through her work with the BDC Academy and for her projects at the Union where she works as an advisor and trainer. Her teaching philosophy continues to reflect her signature motto: “Think big, act small, scale fast”—encouraging her students to start smart and aim high. She’s also writing her second book with former Chief Learning Officer at Qlik Kevin Hanegan which will be a second version of the book Data Literacy in Practice which was launched on the 30th of November 2022 and has been sold over 5000 times across the world.
Angelika’s impact speaks for itself—nearly 40% of her students are now working in data-related roles, with some even leading IT departments where Qlik plays an integral role. Her classroom is a launchpad for real-world careers, and her students’ success stories are a testament to the practical and inspiring education she provides.
A true data advocate, Angelika believes that Data & AI Literacy is more vital than ever. In her words:
“Analytics is no longer a 'nice to have'—it’s a must. A Data & AI strategy, trusted data, and strong governance must be part of every organization’s roadmap. Only then can Data & AI thrive and deliver meaningful insights.”
She continues to challenge her students and organizations and her students to look at AI as a subset (advanced) of Data Literacy, as true AI Literacy requires Data Literacy, therefore it can't be seen as separate areas.
Angelika's dedication goes far beyond the classroom. She recently collaborated with her customer Van Oord on a powerful Qlik app that was spotlighted on the qlik.org platform by Julie Kae. This same project earned Van Oord the Transformation Award at Qlik Connect—a real-world success story that she proudly shares with her students as a source of inspiration and motivation.
When asked why she continues to serve as an Educator Ambassador, Angelika answered simply and sincerely:
“I just love the program. It gives my students the opportunity to get excited about Qlik Sense—just like I did—and bring that knowledge into the companies they work for.”
We’re proud to have Angelika as part of our community and look forward to another impactful year of collaboration. Her work continues to bridge academia and industry, building the next generation of data-literate leaders.

Upcoming Action Needed: Qlik Cloud Themes and Extension Migration, July 30th 202...

Show MoreQlik is improving how the Qlik Cloud platform handles themes and extensions. As part of this transition, existing themes and extensions are being moved to a new service.
What does this mean for me?
While the migration has been ongoing in the backend for some time, we are now surfacing a Migration status column in your Qlik Cloud Administration center. This status message will help you identify whether you need to take action or if the theme or extension has already been migrated successfully.
The column is temporary and will be removed once the migration work is completed.
How the migration works
Starting from last year (November 17th), themes and extensions are automatically migrated to the new service if:
- They are being newly uploaded
- They are actively in use, meaning an end user has opened the sheet using the theme or extension
What about inactive themes and extensions?
To protect customer-owned content, Qlik will not migrate unused themes or extensions. A migration will only trigger if they are:
- accessed, which triggers migration to the new service, or
- you manually confirm them for migration
What action do I need to take?
Review your themes and extensions and identify those that have been inactive since November 17th, 2025:
- Log in to your Qlik Cloud tenant
- Navigate to the Administration Center
- Open either your Extensions or Themes
- Scroll to the right to find the new Status column
Possible Migration status values:
- Not migrated: The theme has not been migrated.
- Queued for migration: The theme has been queued and will migrate during the next scheduled migration run.
- Migration in progress: The theme is currently being migrated.
- Migrated: The theme has been successfully migrated.
Will the unused themes and extensions be deleted?
Unused content will be removed if it is not accessed or migrated by June 30th, 2026.

Purpose This app is an interactive sales analytics dashboard designed to monitor business performance, explore trends, and support data-driven decisions. What it shows Key KPIs: total sales, number of customers, sub-categories, and average unit price Sales breakdown by region, state, and city Product-level insights (quantity sold, top-performing items) Category and sub-category performance Time trends (yearly and quarterly sales) Interactive filters for category and region to drill down into data
Discoveries
📊Sales Performance Insights The North region appears to have the highest sales, closely followed by West and East, while South is slightly lower. Overall sales are strong (over 109M), indicating healthy business performance. 🏙️ City-Level Trends Surat (~11.9%) and Bangalore (~10.3%) are among the top contributing cities. Cities like Mumbai, Chennai, and Pune contribute fairly evenly (~9–10%), showing a well-distributed market. 🗺️ State-Level Insights Karnataka leads in state-wise sales (~15M), followed by Telangana and Maharashtra. There is a cluster of high-performing southern and western states, suggesting strong regional demand.
Impact
: 🚀 Revenue Growth Impact Strong performance in top regions and states (like North and Karnataka) means you can double down on high-performing markets to drive faster revenue growth. The slight dip in 2024 highlights a need for corrective strategies (promotions, new products) to avoid stagnation. 🎯 Market Strategy Impact Well-distributed city contributions reduce risk, but top cities (Surat, Bangalore) offer opportunities for targeted campaigns and expansion. Underperforming regions can be improved with localized marketing and pricing strategies. 📦 Product Strategy Impact High-value products (e.g., laptops) contribute significantly → focus on premium product positioning and upselling. Low-performing items (e.g., accessories with low sales) may lead to inventory inefficiencies, so consider bundling or discontinuation. 💰 Profitability Impact A high average unit price (~10K) suggests strong margins, but optimizing the product mix can further increase profitability. Better alignment of demand vs. supply reduces holding costs and wastage. 👥 Customer Impact With relatively fewer customers generating high sales, there’s an opportunity to: Increase customer base (acquisition campaigns) Boost retention and repeat purchases (loyalty programs) 📈 Decision-Making Impact Leadership can make faster, data-driven decisions using this centralized dashboard. Enables proactive actions instead of reactive ones (e.g., spotting declining trends early).
Audience
Sales managers, business analysts, and marketing teams use the app to track performance and identify trends. Executives rely on it for quick, data-driven decisions to drive growth and strategy.
Data and advanced analytics
The app uses structured sales data (customers, products, regions, and time) to generate insights. It applies advanced analytics like trend analysis, regional comparison, and KPI tracking to uncover patterns and support predictive, data-driven decisions.

Show MoreIn Belo Horizonte, Brazil, the best ideas don't stay in the classroom. For Priscila, they never did. We are proud to welcome Priscila back as a Qlik Educator Ambassador for 2026.
At Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais, she teaches MBA and postgraduate students across some of the most vital disciplines in modern business: data-driven culture, data governance, AI for business, and market intelligence. Her students are not fresh graduates finding their footing. They are analysts, managers, and executives who arrive carrying real, unresolved problems from real organizations and Priscila has built her classroom to be the place where those problems finally meet their match.
"The classes become very dynamic," she says, "because we can discuss real problems brought by the students themselves."
That energy is not a happy accident. It is the result of years spent equally inside lecture halls and inside the organizations her students go home to every evening, someone who has lived both worlds deeply enough to bridge them.
A Curriculum Built to Last
Priscila has spent recent years building something more purposeful than a course catalog. Three ideas now sit at the heart of everything she teaches: data quality, data governance, and data and AI fluency. Not as boxes to check, but as a framework her students carry into every analysis, every dashboard, and every decision they will ever make.
Her reasoning is both simple and powerful. Analytics and artificial intelligence only generate real value when the data underneath them is trustworthy and well governed. Without that foundation, even the most brilliant insight collapses. So in her classroom, Qlik is not the finish line, it is the environment where students learn to do something far more valuable than building visualizations. They learn to question them. Sessions frequently use datasets with intentional quality problems, challenging students to diagnose, clean, model, and interpret. They go further still learning to understand predictions, evaluate risks, and identify the optimizations necessary to use AI responsibly and effectively. It is demanding work. It is also the kind of work that transforms a good analyst into an indispensable one.
"What usually makes the difference in interviews is that they can demonstrate not just tool knowledge, but analytical maturity. They can explain how to organize data, structure analyses, and transform information into decisions."
That is the standard Priscila holds her classroom to and the standard the market is increasingly hungry for. Beyond class hours, she actively encourages her students to pursue the Qlik Academic Program's structured learning paths and certifications, giving them a way to build deeper, independently verified fluency that follows them into every organization they join.
Where She Is Taking It in 2026
Priscila's vision for 2026 is as clear as it is ambitious. She wants every student, regardless of course, to leave with a transferable framework for working responsibly and confidently in data and AI-driven environments. Data governance remains at the core because analytics initiatives don't fail for lack of technology. They fail for lack of structure, ownership, and clarity. She is building those foundations directly into her curriculum.
And generative AI? No longer a future conversation.
"The market no longer values only those who can build dashboards. There is growing demand for professionals who understand data quality, modeling, governance, and business context."
Her courses are being designed to produce exactly the professionals the market is looking for but struggling to find.
The Story That Says It All
One story, more than any other, captures what Priscila is truly building.
A student arrived from a completely unrelated background, drawn to data but without a clear path forward. During a Qlik project, he dug into a real dataset from his own company and uncovered critical inconsistencies in a commission process, the kind of deep, invisible problem that organizations live with for years because no one has ever had the tools or the courage to surface it. He surfaced it. Shortly after, he was invited into a more analytical role within the organization.
He told Priscila that what changed wasn't learning a tool. It was learning to structure problems and think with data.
"And for me," she says, "that is exactly what we are trying to build in the classroom."
Not just skilled analysts. Confident, curious thinkers who make organizations better.
A Bridge That Flows Both Ways
Priscila recently brought a Data Literacy program to a healthcare company in Minas Gerais and discovered that one of her own graduate students was already working there. The university and the market, finding each other without anyone planning for it. A reminder that the seeds planted in the classroom have a way of growing in the most unexpected places.
That is the kind of connection the Ambassador Program makes possible at its best. "Everything I have lived and built with Qlik," she says, "makes me continue to believe it is the best tool for the purpose I promote." Her students enter organizations already fluent, already confident, already equipped to contribute from day one. And through the program's global network of educators, Priscila keeps pushing her own boundaries, drawing inspiration from peers across countries and institutions who share her belief that education can and should change how people work.
Every Semester, a New Chapter
Last year, Priscila published her book on Data and AI Fluency — Estratégias e Práticas para trabalhar e viver em um mundo dirigido por dados — a field guide born not from theory, but from years of classrooms, boardrooms, and every honest conversation in between. It now anchors her teaching, returning to the room each semester as a living document that her students immediately recognize as their own professional reality, finally given language and meaning.
The loop is rare and powerful. Teach from experience. Reflect deeply enough to write it down. Then teach again from what the writing revealed. Each cycle sharper. Each cohort more prepared. Each student a little more ready to go out and change something.
That is what an Educator Ambassador looks like.
Congratulations, Priscila. We are proud to have you back and we cannot wait to see what you write next.
