Learning Summit - Call for Proposals
The second virtual AnEx Learning Summit will be held October 19 - 20, 2022. The NYC Analytics Exchange Learning Summit is a two-day educational conference for New York City employees to improve their skills in data analytics, data engineering, and data governance. (https://www1.nyc.gov/site/analytics/initiatives/analytics-exchange.page) The Office of Data Analytics at the Office of Technology and Innovation is looking for speakers and presenters who can present high-quality, specific-skills trainings to an audience of City data practitioners. We would like to host sessions that are engaging and provide a tangible skill or convey a useful piece of knowledge. Attendees should walk away with a template, code notebook, guide, or other type of material that can be directly used in their work. Do you have a data analytics, engineering, or governance skill that others could benefit from learning? Are you an engaging trainer with experience teaching adult learners? We would love to hear from you! Please submit your ideas below for interactive, virtual trainings or workshops. You do not need to have a fully fleshed out proposal to submit. We encourage submissions that speak to similar competencies as the examples below: • Moving from Excel to Python/R • Working with open source mapping tools • Data visualization with ggplot/matplotlib/plotly • How to design a dataset for sharing with others • Using GitHub as a Team for Version Control • SQL 101 - How to write a good query • Documenting your data and systems effectively • Similar proposals focusing on concrete skills, emphasizing open-source tools and replicable processes The AnEx Team will be in touch with you within a week of your submission to further discuss your proposal.
