No technical prerequisites
You do not need SQL, data modeling or an MDM tool to follow along. People who come from the process side get it first.

How it works
Three steps, nothing hidden
You sign up
Name, email and phone number. We do not ask for a card, and there is no payment step.
You confirm on WhatsApp
A six-digit code arrives on your WhatsApp. You type the code and go straight into your student area.
You study at your own pace
The class is split into stages, each one opening the next: video, support materials, exercises and a graded hands-on activity. Do it whenever you can, even in parts.
What you will take from the class
The clarity to decide your next step
The class does not open with acronyms or tools. It starts with what you already deal with at work and ends by showing where this knowledge can take your career.
- What master data, data quality and stewardship are, explained without jargon
- Why data gets created wrong inside companies, and why people who can fix it are so valued
- Who answers for data in a company, and what role you can play in that
- How this knowledge becomes a job: the roles it can lead you to
No obligation to buy
The class is free and stays free. It exists so you can judge the method on what you actually see.

The class is a sample. The program is the whole path.
Once you finish every stage, you can request the class certificate. The team schedules a 30-minute conversation to understand where you are, and after it the certificate arrives by email. If it makes sense to continue, the full program has 13 learning tracks, 284 lessons and more than 100 hours, with a university extension certificate from Universidade Anhanguera, an institution recognized by Brazil's Ministry of Education (MEC).
MDM Academy lessons and materials are in Portuguese. You can take the program from any country, and an English version is on our roadmap, with no committed date. The certificate is issued in Brazil, in Portuguese, and is valid in Brazil.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
When do I get access?
Right away. As soon as you sign up, the code arrives on your WhatsApp. No waiting list, no drawing, no fixed date.
Will I have to pay for anything later?
No. The class is free and stays free. It exists so you can get to know the method before you think about the full program.
Why do you ask for my phone number?
Because the access code goes out on WhatsApp, where you see the message right away instead of two weeks later in a promotions folder. Your email is used to send the certificate.
Does the class come with a certificate?
Yes. Once you finish every stage, you request the certificate. Before it is issued, the team talks with you for 30 minutes about where you are and your next step, and then the certificate arrives by email.
Is there a deadline to watch?
No. Once your access is open, you study at your own pace, whenever you can, even in parts.
Do I need technical knowledge to follow along?
No. The class starts from the business problem, such as wrong data, rework and reports that do not match, before any tool comes in. People from master data, procurement, supply chain or other business areas follow along with no prerequisites.
I already want to start. Can I skip the class?
Yes. The full program is described on the home page, and the profile quiz helps you choose your track before you decide.
What language is the class in?
Portuguese. The free class, its materials and the full program are all in Portuguese, and so is the video testimonial from our students. We are telling you up front so you can decide before you sign up.
