The insights gained from data analysis are only truly valuable when you can be clearly expressed to other people – bosses, colleagues, clients, customers, or other stakeholders. In this workshop you’ll learn how to turn raw qualitative or quantitative data into a clear visual story through infographics and data visualization. We'll discuss the key principles for planning an effective visual, look at examples of best (and worst) practice, and learn repeatable and practical design techniques for enhancing the story. We'll also give you an overview of useful tools that will help you turn your idea into a finished infographic or data visualization. You could be conjuring up eye-catching slide decks, building effective reports and dashboards, pitching to investors, or presenting persuasive data to your most important customers. This is a fully interactive online workshop, so be prepared to join discussions and get hands on with building your own visualisations. Takeaways Be able to evaluate the elements that make an infographic or visualization effective. Learn quick and repeatable visual tricks for ensuring infographics convey a clear message. Understand how to tailor your approach to different audiences and context. Discover a bunch of free tools and resources to help you build your own visualizations. Understand how online, interactive visualizations work and how to create them. Delivery We deliver our courses over Zoom, to maximise flexibility.

Kay Anderson | Head of Finance | Mima "We have been using Tableau to display data for some time but knew we could do more to engage our end users. Alan’s training gave us a framework to start thinking about what we wanted to achieve with our visualisations and analysis, and some great tips on how to display information for maximum impact. Alan was an engaging trainer and we found the workshops very energising." Ellen Austin | Senior Data Analyst | London School of Economics
