We are delighted to announce the Data for Energy Skills Accelerator, an intensive 8-week online learning programme teaching sought-after data skills for free.
Shell UK is funding an 18-month project with FastFutures to deliver this pre-employability bootcamp, teaching data and digital workplace skills with a focus on the energy transition, providing the opportunity for learners to achieve a Power BI certificate. The programme will run once this month and once in Q1 2024, targeted at people aged 18+ from diverse backgrounds and those nearest to the job market.
