Workshops were designed based on the responses you provided in recent surveys and will include opportunities to meet SMU DataArts staff and ask questions specific to your organization.

Additionally, our friends at the Flinn Foundation invite all workshop participants to join a lunch hour discussion alongside the workshop. A light lunch will be provided for those who RSVP. Your lunch RSVP is separate from your registration for the workshop(s), so be sure to do both.
