Tutorials Tailored to You
What is your favorite way to learn?
Level 1. Watch 'n' Learn. I want to get the information. We recommend the "Video-Only" option.
Level 2. Tinker 'n' Try. I may try the data challenge, but I'm not going for a certificate. Recommended ticket-type: Live Workshop or "Video-Only" tickets. Both ticket-types work.
Level 3. Certificate Seeker. I want to build my data portfolio and earn a certificate. We definitely recommend joining the Live Workshop for a certificate.

Certificate Seekers
Workshop attendees seeking certificates will have 3-days to complete a Data Challenge. Each Data Challenge is designed to be explained in 20 min. Everyone learns at different paces and in different ways. The average time to complete the challenge is 20-40 minutes. Projects complete by the end of Day 3 are awarded certificates.
Video-Only participants who are interested in the content can sign up to get the raw video recording a few days after the session. While earning a certificate is still possible (watching recording, filling out post-survey), certificate-seekers are encouraged to join the live event. Registering for this ticket also means you are first to know when the session is turned into a self-study tutorial kit on our website (timeline: 2-5 months).
