Data work is knowledge work. It can often be done remotely, on flexible schedules, and without the physical or environmental demands that make many traditional workplaces difficult to navigate. If conventional employment has put up barriers that have nothing to do with your actual ability to do the work, data careers are worth a serious look. This program is a low-barrier way to find out if they are the right fit for you.
