6th October

Day 1 will consist of an afternoon of workshops run by our very own Jumping Rivers R pros.

These three workshops will be running in parallel, so when booking, please ensure that you select the correct workshop.

Workshop 1: Introduction to RStudio Connect

Time: 13:30 - 17:00

RStudio Connect is a hosting platform which makes publishing your shiny applications; plumber APIs; R Markdown documents, and many other content types, painless and easy. In this workshop we will demonstrate a few different workflows which allow you to host, share, and scale content on RStudio Connect.

Workshop 2: Introduction to Tableau

Time: 13:30 - 17:00

Faster and more capable of handling larger datasets than Excel, Tableau is quickly becoming a valuable tool for individuals and organisations who want to leverage their data. It’s more user-friendly and simpler to learn than programming languages, but still allows a high-level of customisation. This workshop is designed for people with no prior experience of Tableau, who want to get to grips with the basics of summarising and interactively visualising their data.

Workshop 3: Dashboards with R Markdown

Time: 13:30 - 17:00

R Markdown is an easy to use tool that allows you to dynamically create static or interactive documents and automatically update reports when data changes. Whether you are hoping to generate HTML, PDF or Microsoft Word like documents, or even slides for a presentation, R Markdown tailors to your needs. This workshop will demonstrate how to make simple flexdashboards in R Markdown.

7th October

Day 2 will be a day of talks from expert speakers across industry. The full line up has now been announced!
