Data Analytics Starter Guide II

As full-time working adults with busy personal lives, the ability to fully engage in a structured traditional course can be a roadblock. Video and interactive learning options are preferred so we can follow along, try applying the skills independently, and be able to review the resources at our own pace. Three on-demand courses go beyond classroom learning and give practical perspectives. 

OpenRefine Foundation

This free course covers the foundation of OpenRefine and its scripting language GREL. You will learn how to:

  • Use the facet/filter;
  • Leverage OpenRefine point and click transformation and fuzzy matching function for quick but powerful data cleaning ;
  • Write complex transformations in GREL, OpenRefine script language;
  • Call API and parse results in OpenRefine.

We developed the course in 2015 using OpenRefine 2.6-beta. We do our best to keep the content current with the latest version of OpenRefine. Some third-party services referenced in the course may be not available any longer or have changed their interfaces. Please let us know if there is out-of-date information.

This course was developed by RefinePro in partnership with BigData University and Cognitive Class.  Since 2011, RefinePro has developed training programs for OpenRefine, including free online courses, in-person or remote courses, and individual coaching sessions.
