Welcome to the Dataquest Community!
Whether you’re new to the field or looking to take a step up in your career, this community can help you connect with other passionate learners around the world.
This community is here to encourage collaboration with your peers, facilitate opportunities to grow as a Data Scientist, and bring a global community of passionate learners together. We aim to bring together Dataquest’s diverse students and provide them with an experience that is better than the feeling of an in-person classroom.
