Practical Introduction to R

A practical coaching offer for environmental professionals who want to replace manual spreadsheet-heavy work with simple, reproducible R workflows they can understand, reuse, and keep applying.

This is a cohort-based coached experience with two half-day sessions and eight weeks of follow-through to help you build a first practical R workflow you can actually reuse.

What you'll get

A first reusable R workflow

Build a simple end-to-end workflow that moves from data import to transformation to basic analysis to a simple figure and exported output.

Guided beginner-friendly coaching

Learn the key R concepts in the context of a shared environmental workflow spine rather than abstract syntax alone.

Structured follow-through

Keep applying the method after the live workshop through four biweekly check-ins, review, and reusable support assets.

What actually happens over 8 weeks?

This is not a simple coding workshop. It is a coached experience designed to help environmental professionals replace manual and fragile spreadsheet-heavy work with a first usable R workflow.

Before

Before the workshop, you complete a short readiness process, get help with setup, and identify the workflow context you want to connect the shared script structure to.

During

During the two half-day live sessions, you build a simple reproducible workflow in R while learning the key concepts, objects, and habits that make it understandable and reusable.

After

Afterward, you continue applying the workflow through four biweekly cohort check-ins, one individual support session, and async review.

How much is it?

$2,200 per participant

This allows us to:

keep the cohorts large enough to stay accessible but structured enough to stay useful
reduce beginner setup friction before the workshop
provide follow-through strong enough to support actual adoption

What that includes:

one readiness and setup call
2 half-day live workshop sessions
8 weeks of coached follow-through
4 biweekly cohort check-ins
1 individual workflow meeting
starter assets and reference material

Bonus support and guarantee

More support than a simple workshop, including bonus support and a conditional implementation-focused guarantee.

Bonus support

2 async review windows
annotated starter script and starter project skeleton
workflow checklist for moving from spreadsheet work to a reproducible script
beginner debugging and reference guides

Conditional guarantee

If a participant:

completes intake and setup requirements
attends the live sessions
attends the required check-ins
completes the agreed work between sessions
uses a real or approved example workflow during the coached period

then we will continue supporting them for free until they reach a usable first-workflow outcome.

Is this right for me?

This is a strong fit for environmental professionals who want a serious but practical introduction to R and who need better workflow habits than manual spreadsheet work can provide.

Who this is for

environmental professionals who are new to R
analysts and researchers who only know R through statistics
teams trying to reduce spreadsheet-heavy manual work
buyers who want coached application rather than low-touch training

Who this is not for

advanced R users
buyers looking for a self-serve coding course
participants without minimal comfort handling files and spreadsheet-like data
buyers wanting only a narrow statistics course
