  Course Overview

  • All organisations have a wealth of data to draw upon to create engaging content, but knowing where to start is a challenge. This interactive workshop has been designed for policy, design, and engagement professionals who want to incorporate charts, graphs, and infographics into their content, but do not have a background in statistics.
  • Participants will be given a powerful new framework to identify data-rich storytelling opportunities, and learn how to collaborate more effectively with colleagues to produce unique, compelling, and accessible content.
  • The workshop incorporates individual and group activities to refine and develop your data-driven storytelling skills.
