Predictive modeling with tidymodels: day 1
This workshop will cover the basics of the Tidymodels package. The tidymodels framework is a collection of R packages for modeling and machine learning using tidyverse principles. We will focus on how tidymodels can be used to perform exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, model tuning and selection, and model evaluation through simple models. The workshop is not meant to be an exhaustive description of all the tools within tidymodels or the types of models that can be made but to give a brief overview of the model creation process that can later be adapted to specific data and research questions. A second one will follow this workshop.
Prerequisites: Participants should be familiar with R at an introductory level.

Working with Excel files in R
R users regularly need to read Excel files, manipulate their data, and save them afterward. This workshop teaches how to import and export Excel files by focusing on common scenarios such as having different types of files (.xls, .csv, etc.), multiple sheets, and a folder of datasets and focusing on common scenarios such as having different types of files (.xls, .csv, etc.), multiple sheets, and a folder of datasets.
