The Brief

What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.

Is there a statistically significant gender pay gap at CloudFlow after controlling for job-relevant characteristics, and what policies can close it?

This is not a data exercise. It is the work an analyst does when stakeholders need answers from messy data. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates describe statistical methods and none who have extracted insight from messy, real-world data.

When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."

Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate

Canonical roles

DEI ConsultantFuture-proof
Workplaces don't become more equitable by accident, and they rarely become so through a single training session. A DEI consultant designs the slower, structural work: redesigning hiring loops to reduce bias, auditing pay equity, building belonging surveys that actually measure something, and coaching leaders through conversations they'd rather avoid. The role draws on behavioral science, change management, and a real comfort with discomfort. Students who care about fairness and have the patience for long-cycle change tend to find themselves here. Excellence looks like a hiring process whose outcomes actually shifted, or a culture survey whose results leaders are willing to share. You build toward it through organizational psychology, qualitative research skills, and frameworks like ADKAR.
