Course Description

Certificate in Qlik Sense Analytics Development

Data Scientists, Data Analysts are big career topics today, but we still need an efficient and timely method to visualise what we have discovered in the morass of data within our enterprise. 

Thankfully we have the Qlik suite of products to help us with this and my all time favourite is Qlik Sense, I liked it so much, I took a leave of absence for 3 months to develop this course (and it is continually updated to stay current). 

If you want a hands on approach to learning Qlik Sense and a certificate that showcases your technical skill then this is the best course for you.

Qlik Sense is the next generation of QlikView

Qlik Sense is overtaking so many of it's peers because of it's underlying 'associative data model' technology and absolute ease of discovery for insightful decision making and story telling.

I am sure that once you have completed this course you will not want to revert to the old clunky ways of surfacing your analytics like you did with those products from the older monolithic vendors that will always impose their ways to suppress your work flow and creativity.

This course of study is designed to transition your skills into a deep understanding of Qlik Sense application development.

The skills that you learn in this course is 100% transferable to Qlik Sense Enterprise and Qlik Sense Cloud (SaaS).

Looking forward to seeing you in the course.

Instructor Details

Paul Scotchford

About Me

Hello, I’m Paul , a Data Analyst based in Queensland, Australia, with over 20 years of professional experience turning data into meaningful, decision-ready insight.

My career began in software development before evolving into data analytics, where I’ve worked extensively with SQL Server, SSRS, SSAS, DTS/SSIS, and enterprise reporting environments. In 2012, I transitioned into the Qlik ecosystem, working with QlikView and later Qlik Sense from its early beta release, delivering solutions across both commercial organisations and government agencies.

Since 2015, I’ve been teaching on Udemy, where I’ve had the privilege of supporting more than 137,000 students worldwide in developing practical skills in SQL, data modelling, and analytics — maintaining an average instructor rating of 4.6/5.

In recent years, my focus has expanded into Artificial Intelligence , specifically how tools like ChatGPT can be integrated into real-world analytics workflows. Rather than treating AI as a novelty, I approach it as a structured capability: something that must be designed, controlled, and applied intentionally within professional environments.

That philosophy led to the creation of The Generative AI User Guide for Employees and Leaders , a course built around structured prompting, workflow design, and practical AI implementation.

Paul is such an amazing instructor. I learnt so much in this course that I feel confident in starting as a QS developer for my clients. The course is extremely well structured and delivered at a very reasonable pace. Plenty of hands-on activities made it easier to ingest the theoretical concepts. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to get familiar with Qlik Sense, which is in itself a wonderful platform for analytics. My recommendation would be to follow Paul's advice and take as much time as possible to practise and experiment concepts, over and over again, to solidify your understanding. The course has about 14 hours of video, but you can assume that you'll need about 3 times that time to make sure you make the best out of this course. And definitely join the Qlik Community as you have access to a vast repository and incredible amount of support then.

Sehr gute Einführung in Qlik, sehr engangierter und kompetenter Trainer; bei einigen Punkten (z.B. Arbeiten mit Variablen) hätte ich mir genauere Erklärungen erhofft.

By Poh Twen on 6/18/2018

This course really helps to prepare peoples who are new to qlik sense and coming from qlikview to have a better understanding of how qlik sense work. Paul have provide clear guidance on each lectures on not just how to use but optimise the app created in qlik sense. Coming from excel i would say that qlik sense support more chart types with D3.js visualization extensions and saves alot of time and efforts in making new charts from scratch. It is really a tool more suitable for presentation and storytelling vs excel dashboard or powerpoint with support of raw Big Data for drill down.

The course not only offers a very comprehensive introduction to the QlikSense to novices but also provides a great overview of its functionality and prepares the student for further learning. In addition, the lessons are highly practical that gives even greater value to this course. Evey aspect of that course shows that instructor is experienced professional analyst who knows WHAT can be done with QlikSense, not just an academic or a guy who learned the software. I'd very happy to see more (advanced) courses from Paul Scotchford.

By Anish Philip on 2/12/2018

It is a great course for people who are new to Qlik Sense. Paul is a great instructor who walks you through the functionalities without overwhelming you by any of the complexities. Also very friendly and quick to respond to queries. I will be looking forward to registering for more of the contents posted by him on Qlik and any other analytics platform.

By Ravikant Indise on 1/6/2018

Going throught the QlikSense course was a great learning experience for me. Since I had a chance to undertake the QlikView course (by Paul), this course helped me to revisit and solidify many concepts that are similar in both products. I would like to thanks Paul for putting up such a nice course and sharing his experience with his students. Would like to see more updates in these courses from Paul and will look forward for other courses that he may offer. Once again thanks Paul and Udemy Team.

Amazing course, Loaded with content. Very well structured and organized. Hands-on practices and Quizzes helped to stay engaged and connected with the course. Paul, ensured to show new feature as we move along with each section to create excitement. I would strongly recommend this course. Worth every penny. Eventhough, I am using QlikSense 3.0, the course material did not go out of sync, was able to manage with year old material.

I was trying to learn qlik sense by myself using the tutorials and forums provided by the Qlik.com but I kept getting stuck with unanswered questions and missing information. I was extremely happy to find this course! So far it includes everything i was looking for (i am half way through now): a logical learning curve, simple and clear instructions on how to cherry pick the data you want from your database and display it in multiple ways. And the best part in my opinion - it is all done on "real" company data along with explanations as to why and how to display different types of data. So not only do you acquire the technical knowledge on how to use Qliksense, you also get an glimpse into "behind the scenes" data analysis thought process. That's an extra bonus for me! I highly recommend this course.

By Peggy Wells on 5/9/2016

This is course is very well designed for the price. My version of Qlik was different so some of the features used was not available. Also, some of the examples were slightly different causing my initial errors but you can quickly trace this. For example, KPI chart reference illustrated showed "Online Profit forecast" vs "Online profit forecast". The difference of lower case "p" is only found if you open the workbook and look at the text. Those type of differences causes me to rate this a 4 instead of 5, BUT this product is still very good!
