Data Analytics Essentials Online Learning Circle

Interested in learning about data analytics? Let's take a free online course together in a welcoming space!

A learning circle is a study group, guided by library staff, for people who want to take a free online course together in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Organizations all over the world recognize the value of analytics. Together, we'll learn about the essential tools used in this field.

In this 12-week learning circle, we will work through The Data Analytics Essentials course from Cisco Networking Academy. We will explore the fundamental tools of a data analyst, including how to:

• transform, organize and visualize data with spreadsheet tools like Excel
• query data from a relational database using SQL
• improve data presentations using business intelligence tools like Tableau

We will meet online every Wednesday evening, April 8 - June 24, 6-7:30 PM (12 sessions). 

Participants are expected to commit to the duration of the course and attend sessions on a weekly basis.

Learners who complete the course will be able to:

• earn a digital badge
• download a certificate of completion
