Each course is essential to anyone who intends to use R for any purpose whatsoever. Each course meets for 3 hours weekly for 4 weeks after an initial 'pre-session' orientation meeting. Registration costs per course (USD): $225 student; $295 faculty; and $325 practitioner (23%+ discount for both courses), includes live participation, R and RStudio software (both open source) all slides, exercises, data sets, and class materials, and complete, permanent, desktop recordings of all audio and video from the live, online class sessions.
