UK Open data masterclasses

[Tracey P. Lauriault]

fyi

The aims of the classes are

to teach the general public about the tools and techniques needed to use and analyse the increasing amount of national and local data being made available via the internet, while avoiding the pitfalls of interpreting statistics.

I have send a note to Hanif the contact for these classes to see if he will share his syllabus!

So awesome - data teach in!
