Data Smackdown Award Ceremony
On 15 April, the NSO held the awards ceremony to honour the students who placed first, second, and third in the Data Smackdown competition. The ceremony was held at the Aula Magna, Old University Building, in Valletta.
For the first time, Malta will be participating in the European Statistics Competition (ESC) that will be held in June, and which is coordinated by Eurostat – the statistical agency of the European Union.
