The purpose and mission of The Data Skills Taskforce (DST) is to be a knowledge and best practice sharing forum for leading institutions and experts in the UK, to promote the importance of data skills, to foster collaboration, and to follow the key recommendations of the National Data Strategy. On the website (and in the links), you will find information about training, policies and reports, projects, and case studies. If you are not sure where to start, a particularly useful resource is the self-assessment tool which explores your current knowledge and then offers personalised guidance and signposts you to relevant training opportunities and case studies.

You can also find information about the DST from the Alan Turing Institute.
