Questions
Is coding required?
Optional. You may complete exercises in a spreadsheet or a notebook — choose what your team uses.
Can I use my employer data?
Yes, provided you have permission; we only review methodology, not proprietary numbers.
Limitations?
We do not certify forecasts for external stakeholders — outcomes are skill-building, not endorsement of any single projection.
Cohort notes
“Growth Accounting Studio made me slower in a good way — I now list what the residual could be before I title the chart.”
