Program overview
The Graduate Certificate - Data Analytics (DAA1) is a 8 month program at Fanshawe College’s London campus.
Data Analytics is the eight-month sprint version of a data career pivot: SQL, data wrangling, visualisation and business analytics stacked onto whatever degree a student already holds. The compressed length trades PGWP duration for speed — many students deliberately pair it with a second credential to reach the three-year permit.
Fanshawe brings big-college machinery to bear — industry advisory committees, applied-research centres and one of Ontario’s largest co-op operations — inside a city that keeps student budgets workable.
The credential’s immigration footing is its field — CIP 30.7001 (Data analytics); Fanshawe’s published list is the authoritative check, and IRCC the final authority.
