Overview
Learner goals and capabilities

40-hour, fully-subsidized, data analytics project-based experience for Denver based employers.


Learners are paid a $800 USD payment on completion of the project by Riipen. Employers are not required to provide payment. 

  • Submit a project here for the Impact Projects team to review. 
  • Once approved, you will be matched with a team of up to 5 participants.
  • Projects can start from July 15th and must be completed over 4 weeks.
  • Projects must be completed by August 9th 2024.


Colorado Community College System Google Data Analytics learners are ready to tackle your projects. 


They are eager to support your business in the following:

  • Data manipulation, analysis, and visualization
  • Extracting insights datasets
  • Data cleaning, transforming, and modeling techniques
  • Data-driven decisions and drawing meaningful conclusions.


If you have questions or need help drafting your project content please email us at impactprojects@riipen.com. You can also find all of our help articles here.

Expected outcomes and deliverables

Deliverables will vary depending on the project scope. After the project concludes, you will have assets that can be used to further your business goals, such as an analytics report. 


Given the short, remote nature of Impact Projects, we require a project-based experience. If your project looks like a job posting, we can not accept it. Please provide a concrete scope for the learner’s work and limit their work to a specific project.


We have pinned example project templates to this experience which you can use as a starting point.  If you choose to use a template from our library, ensure that you have added as much context for your business needs as possible.


Note: If learners are completing confidential work that you do not want to be shared through Riipen, you can create and sign off on a timesheet for the learner. In this case, we might also recommend that you have the learners sign an agreement before starting your project. You can use the Agreements feature to do this.

Project Examples

Best-fit projects will match Learner skill areas including:

  • Data collection and cleaning 
  • Data analysis 
  • Report generation 
  • Data modeling and predictive analysis 
  • Data interpretations and recommendations 
  • Data quality assurance

Projects should be approximately 40 hours in length per learner and are to be completed over 4 weeks. Each project should require the contributions of up to 5 learners (200 hours in total). Check out this guide on best practices for working with Impact Projects Learners.
