What does The Carpentries actually do?

We help researchers build practical data and computational skills and we train people to teach those skills to others.

That approach has helped grow a global community:
• 5,405 𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬
• 185 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬
• 4,965 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐢𝐧 72 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬.

But the real impact is personal.

“Changed my career trajectory in a very positive way.”

“It has made me a more confident instructor of coding and coding-adjacent skills.”

Our new Partnership Program helps organisations support these kinds of outcomes through workshops, instructor training, lesson development, and community building.

Our impact starts with people. Behind every Carpentries workshop is a community of Instructor Trainers, Instructors, Maintainers, and many other contributors working together to build data and computational skills worldwide. 🌍

Instructor Trainers prepare new Instructors in evidence-based teaching practices. Those Instructors then teach workshops that reach hundreds of learners. That’s the multiplier effect at the heart of The Carpentries.

Before asking ChatGPT to clean or analyze data —
try Excel tools like Sort, Filter, Pivot Tables.

Faster. Safer. Built for real data.
Excel is still the real workhorse.
