The UCD Professional Academy has partnered with DataCamp (www.datacamp.com) to create bespoke learning tracks that give you the hands-on experience you need in order to master the skills of data analysis.
You will be registered with DataCamp on the day your course commences and you will receive an invitation to join your group on the DataCamp platform. Just sign up from the link in that email.
Please keep an eye out for this email and please also check your spam inbox.
Datacamp features a series of illustrative case studies which allow you to develop and test your knowledge in a practical way, receiving instant feedback. This constitutes the week-to-week ‘homework’ of the course.
Parallel to that, your lecturer will mentor you in the process of applying the tools of data manipulation to a unique data set of your own, taking you right through from retrieving the initial raw data to the point where your data is fully visualised.
Your final grade from the UCD Professional Academy will be based 100% on the completion of this personalised project.
