Standardising R Projects with the ProjectTemplate package workshop

Join our workshop on Standardising R Projects with the ProjectTemplate package, which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series! 

Here’s some more info: 

Title: Standardising R Projects with the ProjectTemplate package

Date: Thursday, November 7th, 14:00 – 16:00 CET (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)

Speaker: Michael Rasmussen is a data analyst based in Melbourne, Australia. Michael is passionate about using data visualization and machine learning to explore data, answer questions and provide insights for decision making. He has a rich background of work experiences with strengths developed as both a psychologist and data scientist, strong theoretical statistical background and experiences in machine learning.

Description: The aim of this workshop is to help attendees understand why standardised R projects are beneficial for the user, colleagues and the wider organisation. Attendees will then be introduced to ProjectTemplate, a package that enables users to support R project workflows, through batch processing the importation of data, preparation and final analysis in a reproducible, effortless manner. Attendees will also be shown how the structure of the project files and workflows can be modified to suit their needs.

If you are not personally interested in attending, you can also contribute by sponsoring a participation of a student, who will then be able to participate for free. If you choose to sponsor a student, all proceeds will also go directly to organisations working in Ukraine. You can either sponsor a particular student or you can leave it up to us so that we can allocate the sponsored place to students who have signed up for the waiting list.

You can also indicate whether you prefer us to prioritize students from developing countries when assigning place(s) that you sponsored.

If you are a university student and cannot afford the registration fee, you can also sign up for the waiting list here. (Note that you are not guaranteed to participate by signing up for the waiting list).
