About Bankly

Across Africa, financial inclusion remains a significant challenge, especially for the unbanked and underbanked populations. Bankly, a fintech company, is at the forefront of addressing this issue by providing digital financial services that make it easier for individuals and businesses to save, make payments, and access other essential financial services. As a company driven by data, Bankly understands that the ability to analyze and utilize data effectively is crucial to scaling its operations and making informed business decisions. To empower its team with the necessary skills to navigate the complexities of data analysis, Bankly partnered with Utiva, a leading workforce development company, to deliver a comprehensive data analytics training program.

The Challenge

In an industry where data is a powerful tool for driving growth and enhancing customer experiences, Bankly needed to equip its team with advanced data analytics skills. The challenge was to find a training partner that could provide a tailored, fintech-focused curriculum that would allow Bankly's team members to efficiently clean, analyze, and visualize data, as well as interact with databases using SQL. The training needed to be flexible, accessible, and aligned with Bankly's goal of making data-driven decisions to optimize operations and expand its services to reach more customers across Africa.

The Solution

To meet this challenge, Bankly chose Utiva to design and deliver a specialized data analytics training program. The program was meticulously crafted to align with Bankly's focus on fintech and sales, ensuring that participants could directly apply what they learned to real-world scenarios. Delivered entirely online, the training included modules on Excel, SQL, and Power BI, with a strong emphasis on practical application. Participants engaged in interactive sessions, case studies, and capstone projects, allowing them to gain hands-on experience in cleaning and analyzing data, developing visualizations, and interacting with databases. The training was structured to accommodate both beginners and intermediate learners, ensuring that all participants could benefit regardless of their prior knowledge.

Promise Kept

Utiva is proud to have supported Bankly in its mission to build a data-driven organization. The training program not only equipped Bankly’s team with the technical skills needed to analyze and interpret data but also enhanced their ability to make informed decisions that drive business growth. By the end of the training, Bankly's team members were proficient in using Excel, SQL, and Power BI to clean data, create visualizations, and extract valuable insights from complex datasets. This partnership underscores Utiva's commitment to delivering customized training solutions that meet the unique needs of its clients.

Beyond the Promise

As Bankly continues to innovate and expand its reach across Africa, the skills acquired through Utiva’s training program will play a pivotal role in the company’s success. Whether it’s improving operational efficiency, developing new financial products, or enhancing customer experiences, Bankly is now better equipped to leverage data as a strategic asset.
