Why Train With JR

When the Jumping Rivers trainers aren't teaching, they are themselves data scientists and data engineers - in other words, we practice what we preach! Their hands on experience of real data projects gives them invaluable insights into your every day needs.

Today it's impossible to analyse data without some programming knowledge. From basic programming skills and fundamental statistical methods to advanced visualisations and machine learning techniques - whatever your skill level, we can help you on the next step in your data journey.

Our training is delivered through a combination of live coding demonstrations, short quizzes, and hands on exercises, and are available both online and in-person. We want the training to work for you, so if you have any specific requests, get in touch and we'll see what we can do!

On-site and Online

Tailored on-site training

Sending your entire team to us can be a bit of task. To avoid the upheaval of your team and expenses, we offer tailored on-site training where we send an expert trainer *to you!*. This means:

  1. All content covered in the training fits the tasks at your hands and the ability of your team.
  2. We will build you a bespoke set of notes, practicals, slides as well as a tailored R/Python package to use until your heart's content.

Tailored online training

If the none of the above suit your needs, we are able to perform 1-1 or 1-many training online. The topics would again be bespoke to you and your team and each course would be built to suit the level of the team and meet the overall objective. For smaller tasks like reviewing of already written code, this method is perfect!
