Data Short Course

We are building a community of Environmental Data Science (EDS) educators through technical training and project based learning. Our Data Short Course introduces EDS educators and leaders to fundamental EDS education tools. Participants learn fundamental teaching tools for open EDS education and research including collaborative web publishing with GitHub, structuring text Markdown, and interactive computing with notebooks.

The 2025 Data Short Course just wrapped up, but stay tuned for our next course coming summer 2026. Click the link below to check out the course and its resources.
