Overview
There is increasing pressure on public sector organisations to manage, process and present large volumes of data. When presented in the right way, data can create impact and make a convincing case to internal and key stakeholders.
This Designing Powerful Data Visualisations course gives you the knowledge to use a range of publicly available and free to use visualisation tools, such as Power BI, which will help you gain further insight and meaning from your datasets.
Through interactive workshops and the use of laptops, learn how to practice using visualisation digital tools on public sector related datasets.
NB: Delegates who attend the day will be asked to bring their own laptops.
