Cambridge Spark in Partnership with AnalystX
Wednesday 17th August, 12pm-1pm (This event has passed)

Data affects our day to day lives in so many ways. It's an imperative part of patient care within the NHS.
For all of healthcare, data has the potential to reshape the industry in the UK. Patient outcomes can be improved through the insight and intelligence that data can provide, making diagnoses faster, increasing the speed of research and delivering more efficient service planning. But how do you embark on a data path in the NHS and where can a career in data take you?
Hosted by Cambridge Spark and with guest speakers from the NHS Python Community, this webinar will explore current projects in this area, where data roles can lead in the NHS and what training is available for you to further your career.
If you're an NHS staff member who is considering exploring data roles and upskilling options, we recommend inviting your line manager and other colleagues to join this webinar as well. The webinar will cover the options available and how the NHS is currently upskilling the workforce for data.
This webinar will be recorded using MS Teams.
