Path to Becoming

Become a Data Scientist

[ Ask useful questions, work with data and explain the evidence. ]

Learning towards Data Scientist

Build foundations in statistics, programming and analysis, then apply them to a question that matters to you. These stages are an example rather than a fixed schedule or promise of job readiness.

Example practice

Example practice: inspect a dataset, explain the question and assumptions, and present findings with their limitations. Use a suitable external data tool when the exercise needs one.
