“Data is the new oil” - The Economist, May 2017
In this data age, the ability to extract value from data is a highly sought after by both individuals and organizations. And it takes hard technical skills to manage the large datasets and extract insights from the data, but it comes to naught unless the insights can be clearly and quickly communicated to the intended audience. Data visualization provides a graphical representation of the data to communicate key insights quickly and effectively; even to those who are less numerically inclined. To this end, data visualization has very become indispensable part of the analytics toolkit today.
This workshop aims to provide a broad but practical overview of the entire analytics value chain; with a focus on using data visualization to convey intended messages from the data to an audience. Attendees will learn the fundamentals of visualisation and get their hands “dirty” building different visualizations using Tableau (cited in Gartner’s magic quadrant as one of the top platforms for business intelligence in 2019).
This is targeted at professionals and managers in non-analyst roles but may be required to work with or make sense of data and presenting data in their work.
