Training material for tidyverse
This training was developed to reinforce the learning of R, in conjunction with online modules where the content is discussed with the trainees.
The notes from the online modules are captured in a learnr script, which allows the trainees to have a copy of the notes from module, as well as a copy of all the exercises, and additional exercises for them to test their knowledge.
This also allows for them to revisit the learning after the course has finished, as some trainees may be infrequent users of R.
