Why DataSAI

Built for you, not converted from euros

Same program, same instructors, same certificate as in Europe. Only the price and the payment methods change.

A real local price

At the fixed exchange rate, the €490 Essential plan of the Data Analyst Bootcamp would cost about 321,000 FCFA. In the CFA franc zone, you pay 75,000 FCFA.

The payment you already use

Orange Money and MTN MoMo where available, plus card and bank transfer. Installments are available on request.

Live and recorded

Classes are taught live, in French and English. Every session is recorded, so if your connection drops, you can catch up whenever you like.

Skills that show

Hands-on projects, a portfolio and a final project presented to a panel of recognized experts. That's what recruiters look for, in Abidjan just as in Paris.

FAQ

Your questions

Is the CFA franc price just a conversion?

No. At the fixed exchange rate, the €490 Essential plan of the Data Analyst Bootcamp comes to about 321,000 FCFA. In the CFA franc zone, the same plan costs 75,000 FCFA. The price is set for local purchasing power, for the same program and the same certificate.

How do I pay with Orange Money or MTN MoMo?

Sign up, then open your profile. The Orange Money and MTN MoMo numbers are shown there with the amount in CFA francs. After paying, upload your receipt to your profile. Your access is activated within 48 business hours.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes. Message us on WhatsApp at +1 (904) 243-7876 and we'll set up a payment plan together. Scholarships are also available.

Are classes taught in English?

Yes. DataSAI teaches in French and English, so you can learn in the language you're most comfortable with.

What if my internet connection drops during a class?

Every live session is recorded. Replays are unlimited and access is for life, so you can catch up as soon as you're back online.

What if I change my mind?

You get a full refund at any time until the end of the first week of classes: just email contact@datasai.fr. After that, if something unexpected stops you from continuing, you can transfer your enrollment to the next cohort for free. If we postpone or cancel a cohort, you choose between a full refund and a transfer. Refunds go back to your original payment method within 14 days of your request.

I live in Africa outside the CFA franc zone. Can I get adapted pricing?

CFA franc pricing is reserved for the 14 countries of the CFA franc zone. Elsewhere, prices are in euros. Message us anyway: installments and scholarships are available wherever you live.
