Got a new #apprenticeship programme approved last week!

L4 #DataAnalyst is available for learners to start in September this year (and is taking applications now) and covers #AI #MachineLearning#scripting and tools and mechanisms for effective #DataManagement and control in the modern workplace.

This is a fully funded (essentially free) #training (for employers in #England) it's based on our existing #DataScience #degree apprenticeship course, where 86% of participants have achieved a 1st!

What turns a good conference into a great one? Exceptional talks that stick with you!

We were delighted to sponsor the Lightning Talk Awards at the 3rd FAIR Digital Objects Conference. Many congratulations to the winners for their outstanding contributions!

🥇 Sam Sun (1st Place) for his talk about the role of (FAIR) Digital Objects in IoT mobile applications

🥈 Barbara Magagna (2nd Place) for her talk about FAIR variables and the I-ADOPT variable service.
