2.3 Where/how to study R?

If you haven’t used R sofar it’s necessary that you learn some basics in R. As a participant of the seminar you get 6 months access to all the courses on DataCamp. DataCamp has become the go-to site for self-studying various data science skills (mostly software).

• See this site for an overview of the R courses they offer. Basically, datacamp offers a track “Data Scientist with R”.
• While the introduction is free for everyone you also have access to all other courses for six months.

If you like you can also have a look at the other options below but I would recommend that you start with data camp.
