Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this data visualization training:

Data has become the most important resource for every business, and so the ability to distill raw numbers into meaningful messages is coveted by employers and entrepreneurs alike. But the insights gained from data analysis will only ever be truly valuable if they can be clearly expressed to other people – bosses, colleagues, clients, customers, or other stakeholders.

In this workshop you’ll learn how to turn raw data or dense information into a clear visual story through infographics and data visualization. You'll discuss the key principles for planning an effective visual, discuss 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.

This workshop will be most useful for anybody working with lots of data (as an analyst, data scientist, academic, finance officer, or business manager) who needs to find creative ways to effectively convey the meaning to other people.

Takeaways

  • Be able to evaluate the elements that make an infographic or visualisation effective, through discussion of good and bad examples.
  • Find out the difference between infographics and data visualisation and how they work together.
  • Discover quick and repeatable visual tricks for ensuring infographics convey a clear message.
  • Learn to tailor your approach to different audiences and contexts.
  • Learn how to create infographics, visualisations quickly using a toolkit of online resources.
  • Understand how online, interactive visualisations work and how to create them.

Preparation

  • This class is for people who may be experts in the data they work with, but are beginners when it comes to creating infographics and visualizations.
  • This is an interactive class, so bring along an idea for a visualization that you'd like to create, and pens and paper so that we can sketch it out.
  • This class is taken completely online via Zoom and Slack.
  • You will need access to a laptop or computer with a working webcam as well as a strong internet connection.
  • Course set up information will be emailed to all students signed up around 24 hours before (and again an hour before) the course launches.
