R Fundamentals for Data Science
Learn to code clearly and confidently in R using AI to support your ideas and vision. This hands-on workshop is designed for resourceful beginners who want to take control of their data work. You’ll build the essential skills to read, understand, and adapt R code—not to become a coding expert, but to work independently and confidently. Discover how AI can support your coding without taking over your thinking, so you can move from blind copy-pasting to mindful, reproducible workflows. This workshop is highly interactive, with a focus on practical exercises, coding challenges, and every-day problem-solving.
- Get Comfortable with R: Learn R syntax, data types, and essential functions to analyse data confidently.
- AI Prompting Essentials: Understand how coding works to frame clear requests to get helpful results from your AI.
- Read and Adapt Code: Build the ability to read, understand, and tweak R scripts for your needs.
- Stay Organised: Simple strategies to keep your projects tidy and structured for reproducibility and reusability.
- Practice-Based Learning: Every concept is reinforced through practical examples and real-world exercises.
Next dates: January 26-29, 2026.
The workshop runs over four days, typically from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM Central European (Summer) Time.
The workshop is hosted on Zoom.
