Data dashboards provide key information to stakeholders so that they can make informed decisions. While there are plenty of software solutions for building these essential data products, there is much less guidance on how to design dashboards to meet the diverse needs of users. This course is for anyone who is building or implementing dashboards, and wants to know more about design principles and best practice. You could be using business intelligence software (such as Power BI or Tableau), or implementing bespoke solutions. The course will give your team the ability to evaluate user needs and levels of understanding, make informed decisions about chart selections, and make effective use of interactivity dynamic data. We’ll work with you before the course to ensure that we understand your organisation and what you’re hoping to achieve. Sample learning content Session 1: Data with a purpose Understanding the different types of dashboard. Information overload and other common dashboard pitfalls. Assessing user needs and levels of data fluency. Session 2: Planning a dashboard Assessing diverse user needs and levels of data fluency. Taking a User Experience (UX) approach to design and navigation. Applying an interative and collaborative approach to onboarding. Session 3: Graphs, charts and dials Understanding how graphical perception informs chart choices. Making intelligent design choices to help users explore. Design principles for layout and navigation. Session 4: Using interactivity Making effective use of filters to slice and dice data sets. Using layers of information to enable drilldown data exploration. Complenting dashboards with automated alerts and queries. Delivery We deliver our courses over Zoom, to maximise flexibility. The training can be delivered in a single day, or across multiple sessions. All of our courses are live and interactive – every session includes a mix of formal tuition and hands-on exercises.

About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) Electrical machines, mainly power transformers and electric motors are critical equipment that run production, and it must operate without any abnormalities. A wide variety of tests and standards have been developed to assist manufacturers and users of motors and transformer winding, assess the condition of the electrical insulation. The objective of this training course is to provide an understanding of power transformers and electric motors, their materials, components, and how they operate. It will also emphasize the importance of transformer life management, especially for those transformers and electric motors which have been in operation for than 10 years. The course will address in detail all aspects related to transformer principles, calculations, operation, testing and maintenance. Training Objectives This course aims to provide participants with the understanding of the fundamentals and constructional features of power transformers and electric motors, with particular reference to the design, testing, operation and maintenance of transformers in power systems. Delegates will gain a detailed appreciation of the following: Practical solutions for specifying, operating and maintaining power transformers and electric motors in a utility or plant environment Comprehensive understanding of principles, protection, maintenance and troubleshooting of power transformers and electric motors The necessary safe procedures relating to transformer operation and related circuitry Understand the principles of operation of the transformer and electric motors Identify the different features of power transformers and electric motors Appreciate the principles of transformer design, ratings, winding, core structure and materials, insulation and cooling methods, insulation and lifetime Utilize thermal limits and loading guides of transformers Analyze transformer and electric motors failure modes Target Audience Engineers of all disciplines Managers Technicians Maintenance personnel Other technical individuals Course Level Basic or Foundation Training Methods The VILT will be delivered online in 4 half-day sessions comprising 4 hours per day, with 1 x 10 minutes break per day, including time for lectures, discussion, quizzes and short classroom exercises. Additionally, some self-study will be requested. Participants are invited but not obliged to bring a short presentation (10 mins max) on a practical problem they encountered in their work. This will then be explained and discussed during the VILT. A short test or quiz will be held at the end the course.
