University Of Essex Offers Free Data Science & Analytics Training
Data skills are in incredibly high demand in every industry and job function; being familiar and comfortable with using data at work is becoming a vital skill for many careers
UK-based University of Essex today announced ‘Data for All’, a free data science and analytics training programme for every student at University of Essex. Every student now has the opportunity to gain the essential data skills many employers are demanding, at no additional cost to their study.
The three-pronged ‘Data for All’ approach means University of Essex students can access a whole range of data programmes, tailored to their individual data needs and to improve these skills.
These are:
- For students wanting to have data science and analytics as the key focus of their degree, Essex offers a wide range of specific courses
- For students who want data to be part of their degree but not the main feature, there is the opportunity to gain advanced data analytical skills within their degree programme
- For students taking non-data focused degrees but are interested in enhancing their data skills to improve their employability, they can take part in a wide range of extra-activities including a basic introduction to data skills short course and a data science boot-camp
