Our learners say it best

This is an excellent introduction to R and Rstudio and the capabilities of R. It was easy to understand and the exercises and tips were very helpful. I learned a lot. Thank you for offering this us to dip our toes into using R.

Eric Excellent beginner course...

I’ve had so many false starts trying to learn R: my initial excitement at learning something new is quickly dashed by the brick wall of coding. I keep telling myself R is not for non-coders like me and off I slope back to Excel! This course is different. To use the words of one of my data heroes, Alberto Cairo, this course doesn’t try to simplify R but it helps clarify the basic skills you need. The step-by-step approach to building skills kept me engaged and learning all the way through. All the while I kept thinking, I know how I can use this in my current job.

I am speechless! I have been trying to feel comfortable with R for so many years. I used to spend so much time looking for resources on the internet, trying to put all the pieces together, and I was always defeated. This course is an excellent shortcut to learning R.

A serious course for a beginner. Watch it with pen and paper and write down important things.

Your intro course makes me feel like R is not as daunting as I initially thought and it is something I can learn (with time).

I am just starting R and this course was really helpful ! Thanks a lot :)

Definitivo, es un muy buen inicio. He manejado r antes y aprendí muchas cosas nuevas. Gracias David y equipo por un muy buen trabajo. Abrazo, Martha Lucía.

This course is a short, clear, and comforting way to get started with R starting with installing the package and opening a dataset to viewing data and defining missings and variable types. I highly recommend it if you plan to start using R.

I'm truly excited about taking this course-- there's so much to learn and so many different ways to approach things. The way the course is structured has really helped simplify what seemed to me as super complex and boosted my confidence in working with R.
