Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced a partnership with training platform Multiverse to offer more than 400 UK staff a specialist course in computer programming and data analysis.
The 15-month training programme begins with basics including fundamental database skills and how analysis is used throughout the industry, with real-world case studies.
The course later touches on specialist areas including machine learning and two ‘hackathons’. These are effectively collaborative races to produce a functioning piece of software in a short time window (usually 24 to 48 hours), promoting teamwork and providing valuable experience in working under pressure.
