Case setup (reproducible profile)

  • Target role: entry-level data analyst in North America.
  • Starting point: no analytics work history, 10-12 study hours per week.
  • Constraint: needs portfolio proof before high-volume applications.

Reproducible generator inputs

  • Goal input: land an entry-level analytics role with portfolio-ready projects.
  • Experience: beginner; weekly time: medium; budget: moderate.
  • Certificate preference: yes; project preference: yes.

Run the same constraints in the SkillPath generator and verify that data analytics remains the core route while adjacent options stay visible as fallback paths.

Execution evidence package (what gets published)

  • Artifact 1: cleaned dataset analysis notebook with assumptions and caveats.
  • Artifact 2: dashboard with one decision narrative and metric definitions.
  • Artifact 3: resume bullet set mapped to project outcomes and scope.
