Your Open-Source and Clinical Programming Learning Headquarters
Atorus Research was founded on the belief that a multilingual programming approach will continue to gain acceptance in the life sciences community. At Atorus Academy, we offer eLearning and live training built on content developed by our industry-tenured team of trainers who have years of multilingual clinical programming experience.
Atorus Academy teaches programmers of any level and background the best methodologies for utilizing open-source within the highly regulated clinical environment.
What Others Are Saying
“I have bought a bunch of R books and have done a couple of other R trainings. This is by far the most relevant training… The topics are specific to our field (clinical data datasets, tables, labs, etc.). You don’t have to waddle through a lot of generic stuff to get to the good bit. This is a clear strength.”
“Our partnership began with Atorus Academy providing R training to all our SAS users, a transition vital for us to remain competitive in today’s increasingly complex and dynamic data landscape. Their training approach is meticulously designed to accommodate professionals of all levels and backgrounds. The comprehensive curriculum, practical exercises, and personalized coaching offered by Atorus effectively lay the technical groundwork for individuals to fully utilize R for statistical programming. Furthermore, their trainers possess a unique combination of technical proficiency and teaching excellence, making complex concepts understandable and actionable for learners.”
Atorus Academy Offers a Range of eLearning Options to Suit Your Organization’s Needs
R for Pharma Curriculum
Learn how to use R statistical software in clinical programming with trainings and resources explaining how R can be utilized to complete every step of the clinical pipeline. With pharma-specific topics, members benefit from straight-to-the-point learning material applicable to their day-to-day jobs.
SAS® to R Curriculum
This unique curriculum empowers seasoned SAS® programmers to translate their SAS® skills to the R statistics language using side-by-side comparisons of the two statistical programming languages, rather than learning R from scratch. Members learn how they can mimic what they are already used to doing in SAS®, using R, allowing them to benefit from the advantages of a multilingual approach.
New Content Added Regularly
Content is added regularly to ensure Atorus Academy remains a one-stop shop for training on the most up-to-date open-source data analysis tools and technologies.
How Members Learn
eLearning
Atorus Academy’s self-paced eLearning courses feature video instruction followed by quizzes and interactive coding exercises, allowing members to write and test their own code all within the Academy. Courses are broken down into feasible segments, making it easy to learn at any pace. eLearnings also contain various materials to suit any learning style, including:
- Scripts — searchable text versions of the eLearning course
- Cheat Sheets — concise reference documents highlighting the key concepts of the material
- Capstones — comprehensive independent assignments to enforce knowledge of the material from start to finish
Upon completion of an eLearning course, members will receive a shareable course completion certificate.
Code Cabinet
Atorus Academy’s code cabinet is a continuously growing set of ready-to-execute example code for members to use as templates and learning tools. Our examples of CDISC data sets, tables, charts, plots, and more allow members to focus more on the science and less on the style, gaining hands-on experience applying our curriculum to challenges characteristic of clinical trial data management.
