Welcome to the Women in Big Data™ Training Page!
Here you will find information on all of our past and upcoming technical and non-technical training workshops. We are still building up a list of future topics and dates so please check back here periodically for our quarterly events. Ideally, we would develop the list of upcoming topics from your input, Here is a link to a super-brief survey where you can influence future training content.
Thank you in advance for letting us know what kind of training would help you progress on your Big Data path.
