In the first module, we focus on the nature, purpose and ethics of data visualisation, and how it can be used to improve your business. We also take a look at some common errors that result in misleading graphs, and how to avoid them.
The second module explains some of the more common forms of data visualisation and when to use them. Our focus is on clarifying the purpose of your visualisation, selecting the right type of visualisation, and appropriate design choices to add clarity and visual appeal.
Our third module covers the basics of building graphs in Excel, but the concepts and techniques included here are applicable to whatever visualisation tool you choose to work with. The final unit of this module demonstrates how an entrepreneur might use these basic techniques to analyse their data for insights.
In the fourth module, we move on to more advanced graph-building techniques, which require a little more input and know-how, as well as the occasional workaround to overcome Excel’s limitations. Once more, the specifics of Excel are kept to a minimum, so even if you prefer a different tool, you will find something of value in each unit of this module.
Our final module ties everything together with an exploration of data dashboarding. We’ll look at the types and purposes of data dashboards, and what to consider when designing a dashboard for your business. We conclude with a step-by-step case study which demonstrates what all of this looks like in practice.
