Rebecca Chapman, a Data Science Dojo Nonprofit Fellow and a Program Manager at Equal Access International*, discusses how working data science skills are important for the nonprofit sector. Rebecca’s work involves peace building, education, youth programs, job skills, political process and civic engagement through media communication in the developing world. She discusses how she was able to apply the skills she acquired on the data she gathered during her work. She thinks Data Science Dojo is the perfect place to get started with data science because of the short-duration and comprehensive curriculum – even for absolute beginners.
