My colleague built Data Gymnasia <https://mathigon.org/data-gymnasia> on
the Mathigon <https://mathigon.org/> platform to bring our MS in Data
Science students up to speed a bit, to have more of them at the same place
by the time the semester started.

It's open-source and is intended to be an interactive textbook, which might
be about the right scope.  The content has been semi-vetted by the TAs in
our program but not as collaboratively developed by people with the same
type of training as the Carpentries instructor training, so I can't assert
that it's as inclusive as Carpentries materials, but some of it might be
what you're looking for and the platform but adding your own content is
also a plausible path. I can connect you with my colleague, if you'd like.
