This training is for anyone who needs to present data insights as part of their role - engineers, finance, HR, technicians etc…
Students will be asked to bring a data project to the course that is a typical part of their role so the project is personal to each student.
It is also a great opportunity to learn what other companies are doing in this area.

While we’re aware that organisations use tools such as QlickView, Tableau or Excel; this programme is not based on any system.
The purpose is to train participants who communicate insights from data, regardless of what system they are pulling the data from, to present that data clearly and effectively so that decisions can be made more easily.
The focus is on visual literacy
9-week online programme - comprising four teaching and four tutorial sessions plus one presentation. Each Thurs 10am – 1pm for nine weeks.
There will be a specific time set aside to avail of tutorial advice, which can be done or via phone, Skype, email, etc. Tutorial times will be arranged in advance.
From applicants, we require current role title and a sentence or two on what they hope to gain from this course.
Who is this course for?
Anyone who communicates insights from data in their job, either in dashboards, reports or PowerPoint presentations.
This course is ideal for those involved in the interpretation of data as well as the presentation of data in a wide variety of organisations including engineering and manufacturing.
This course is a mix of talks and practical workshops on contemporary approaches to data visualisation. Each teaching session will be three hours and there will be tutorials where advice is available to participants working on a self-initiated work based project. Participants will learn to create their own data and understand key theories in the interpretation of data visualisation.
Teaching sessions: Thursdays X 4 from 10am – 1pm
The teaching sessions will be online webinars and include a combination of talks along with discussions and workshops – similar to last year. These will be recorded and available online for those who wish to view them later or can’t make the session. However, we would encourage all participants to engage online with the Thursday morning sessions as there will be an opportunity to ask questions and for them to set aside that time in the week for the course.
Project tutorial Sessions: Thursdays X 4 from 10am – 1pm
The project tutorial sessions are 15 mins in duration for each participant each week conducted via Zoom or MS Teams. As the overall time given is three hours in duration, a maximum of 12 can participate on the course at any one time.
Presentation Session: Thursday X 1 from 10am – 1pm
Each participant will be given 15 mins to present their project via Zoom or MS Teams.
