Learn how to use code to read, change and rearrange data
Data is everywhere. It powers business decisions, keeps us informed and helps us to form our opinions. The data industry is fast growing and there is a need in every company for people who understand and can manipulate data.
Over a period of 30 hours you will learn how to:

remove bad data (null values, incorrect types of data, data that is easily identifiable as wrong or unexpected)
sort, group, filter data
save data in files or a database
help ensure the security of the data
create visual representations of the data (charts, timelines, etc)
