Data with python for improvers

Description

Introduction to data with python is a 30 hour course, delivered online using SpatialChat (a collaborative online, social space). We use Agile scrum methodology with Trello to manage our learning.

The course will usually take place over a number of weeks (e.g. 1 day a week for 5 weeks).  

You will learn how to 

• read data sets from spreadsheets, databases and a range of other data sources
• ‘clean’ the data so that reports and statistics are more accurate
• manipulate the data so that you can present it in different ways
• run statistical models and to use the result to predict trends
• visualise data using a range of charts and graphs. 

On completion of this course you could work on real world project analysing and visualising data for a charity.
