COURSE OBJECTIVE:
If you are interested in gaining a good grasp of ggplot2 in a systematic and practical way by working through real-world scenarios, then this course is for you.
This course will provide you with knowledge of the following:

• Illustrating continuous integration and continuous delivery concepts
• Setting up the R environment, R Studio, and explaining the structure of ggplot2
• Distinguishing between types of variables and best practices for visualizing them
• Changing the defaults of visualizations to reveal more information about the data
• Implementing the «Grammar of Graphics» in ggplot2, such as scales, coordinate systems, position adjustments, and faceting
• Creating complex visualizations and investigating the correlations between variables
• Designing and implementing a visualization from scratch

TARGET AUDIENCE:
This course is meant for professionals who work with data and use R as part of their workflow. It also targets students who want to extend and enhance their data analysis skills by adding complex, informative, and professional visualizations. This course will not cover the basics of R commands and objects, so students are expected to have some familiarity with the R language.
