Hello,

I have been asked to distribute the following announcement.

I personally know 2 of the blind individuals helping create the course so I am lead to believe it will be quite useful.

This free course, "Empowering Data Vision: A Data Science Course for Blind Individuals using Python," will teach blind individuals the basics of using Python to interact with datasets. The course will be offered on Zoom from Aug 5-15, 2024. Follow the link below for details about the course curriculum, eligibility and instructions on how to apply.



The Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute, the University of Michigan and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are delighted to present our second on-line course dedicated to data science for blind individuals.
