-## Overview
+## Welcome!
 ***
 
-**Welcome to Introduction to R for Public Health Researchers!**  
+Data Science for Environmental Health (DaSEH) is a short course that combines **online** learning and an **in-person** project-focused intensive. DaSEH is tailored for beginners and novices in R programming, offering instruction on importing, wrangling, visualizing, and analyzing data. It provides hands-on training in using R for statistical computing, a widely-used open-source tool for data analysis and visualization.
 
-This course is for students who have little to no familiarity with the R programming language and want to learn more about how to use R to import, wrangle, visualize, and analyze data.
+### Two-week course
 
-The course will provide students with **“hands-on” training** for analyzing data with the R programming language for statistical computing, a popular open-source solution for data analysis and visualization.  
+DaSEH begins with a two-week online course that solidifies R programming foundations. Participants learn best practices and ingrain programming skills via active hands-on lab activities. We will practice new skills one topic at a time to make the content more manageable! 
+
+### Code-a-thon
+
+The two-week foundation prepares participants a three-day in-person intensive “Code-a-thon”. Here, we'll work on authentic environmental health projects. We'll also practice data ethics skills in peer code review, reproducibility, and transparency in a supportive environment.
