What tools do I need?

Excel 2016+ and Python 3 (free). Power BI Desktop is free. No paid software required — all libraries install with pip.

Do I need Python experience?

Basic Excel is required. Python is taught from scratch — if you can use SUM and VLOOKUP, you are ready to start.

How is this different from the Python for SC program?

This program focuses on inventory management (EOQ, safety stock, replenishment, multi-echelon). Python for SC teaches the language itself — forecasting, automation, data wrangling.

What datasets do we use?

Real anonymised inventory data: FMCG, spare parts, retail and manufacturing. You will work with messy, real-world data that requires cleaning and judgment.

Is there a certification?

Yes — the CIOP™ (Certified Inventory Optimisation Professional) awarded by Mathnal Analytics on completion of modules and capstone.

Can my company run this in-house?

Yes. We run corporate cohorts on your own SKU data. Contact us for group pricing and a custom curriculum proposal.

What is the payment process?

Select your payment method, pay, enter the transaction ID in the form, and submit. You will get confirmation within 15 minutes.
