Massive open online courses (MOOC), youtube videos, ebooks, documentation of analytics software and programming libraries are freely available. These resources allow us to build and maintain a data analytics environment, to deal and analyze with data from diverse sources. The necessary skills to work with such an environment require permanent training and willingness to explore new approaches.
This list provides links to material explaining the techniques and strategies applied for the analyses of data from various sources. Whenever possible we link to resources which offer hands-on explanations, but also introduce or refer to theoretical concepts.
