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.

- 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:
