Additional industrial representatives, all the Turing partners and interested institutions will be invited.Aims and ScopeTrain the trainer: identifying a set of skills and interventions for data science educators.Student&#x27;s employability: identifying the latest expectations from academia and industry on the skills of data scientists. Work with employers: opening discussion with non-partners and members of industry to identify critical areas of interest to include in our data science curricula.Data Science for non-STEM disciplines: discussing how to expand data science training to less technical disciplines in order to improve data and computational literacy.Data science education study group: participants will have the opportunity to work on the conversations started during the discussion session in a dedicated study group.
