Fundamentals of Dashboard Design
Data and Business Intelligence|2 days|Classroom or live online
Fundamentals of Dashboard Design is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through forecasting techniques and pivot table analysis without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with report automation, storytelling with data and scenario modelling in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring report automation into line with current good practice, measured against established visualisation principles
- Explain storytelling with data to someone who does not do the work
- Put scenario modelling on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Spot where visual encoding choices is failing before it becomes a finding
