What You'll Build

The foundations of technical literacy.

Every program strengthens one or more of these core capabilities — the building blocks of a data-driven future.

Py

Python

From first scripts to data analysis with pandas and Polars.

R

R

The tidyverse and statistical computing for real analysis.

σ

Statistics

Statistical reasoning that turns numbers into sound decisions.

◈

Data Science

The full workflow: wrangling, modeling, visualization, and communication.

AI

AI Literacy

Using AI tools practically and responsibly — with human judgment at the center.

Our Teaching Philosophy

Teaching from the Heart.

We teach with clarity over complexity and patience over prestige. Every lesson is built to make technical knowledge understandable, practical, and human — so learning feels less like a barrier and more like an open door. This is what we mean by Learning Simplified: meeting people where they are and walking with them toward real capability.

In Development · Launching Q2 2027

A Preview of What We’re Building

We are investing the time to build original curricula, professionally record lectures, validate assessments, and test programs before launch. Here is a preview of what is coming — every program designed and taught by founder Alier Reng.

In Development Beginner
01 🚀 Polars · uv · Quarto · Positron

Getting Started in Data Science

Your entry point into data science. In under three hours, set up a modern development environment with Positron IDE, manage Python with uv, author reproducible documents with Quarto, and begin working with real data using Polars.

What You'll Learn

  • What is Data Science — distinguishing it from analytics and analysis (~20 min)
  • Development environment — uv, Python, Positron IDE (~25 min)
  • Quarto notebooks — reproducible literate programming (~20 min)
  • Environment management — pyproject.toml, uv.lock (~15 min)
  • Python essentials — data types, lists, tuples, functions (~50 min)
  • Working with data — Polars load · filter · transform · aggregate (~30 min)

In Development All Levels
02 🤖 CREDO

AI Communication & Prompt Design

A 4.5-hour self-paced training that teaches professionals, creators, analysts, and educators to design structured prompts using the C.R.E.D.O. Framework — producing production-grade outputs from Claude, GPT, and Gemini. Capstone earns the PyStatR+ certificate at ≥85%.

What You'll Learn

  • Foundations — what prompts are and the core mindset shifts
  • The C.R.E.D.O. Framework — Context · Role · Execution · Deliverable · Obstacles
  • Precision techniques — few-shot, chain-of-thought, structured output
  • Model strategy — selection & cross-model workflows across Claude, GPT, Gemini
  • Live iteration — refinement loops & hallucination kill-switches
  • Capstone project — portfolio-grade deliverable graded on C.R.E.D.O.
⏱ 4.5 hours 📜 Certificate at ≥85% 🎯 No coding required

Data Analysis with Polars

Modern, high-performance data analysis with Polars — the lightning-fast DataFrame library reshaping how we work with data in Python. Master expressions, contexts, and lazy evaluation through real-world projects.

What You'll Learn

  • Polars fundamentals — expressions and contexts API
  • Data I/O — loading and exporting CSV, Parquet, Arrow
  • Transformations — filter, select, with_columns, joins
  • Aggregations — group_by, agg, window functions
  • Lazy evaluation — query optimization for performance
  • Real-world projects — census, time series, large-file workflows
⏱ 5–6 weeks 📚 6 modules 🐍 Python basics required

Principles of Data Science with Python

A 16-week course merging the analytical rigor of business statistics with the applied power of modern data science. Foundational concepts through probability, inference, regression, and ML — all implemented in Python with Polars, SciPy, Statsmodels, and Scikit-learn.

Course Structure — Four Units

  • Unit 1: Foundations (Weeks 1–4) — sampling, Polars wrangling, descriptive stats
  • Unit 2: Probability & Distributions (Weeks 5–8) — discrete, continuous, the normal curve
  • Unit 3: Statistical Inference (Weeks 9–12) — CLT, CIs, hypothesis testing, chi-square
  • Unit 4: Modeling & ML (Weeks 13–16) — ANOVA, regression, time series, ML, capstone
⏱ 16 weeks · ~48 hours 📚 4 units · 16 modules 🐍 Basic Python required
