Fundamentals of Data Visualisation
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Data Visualisation is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through SQL querying and DAX and calculated measures without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because most organisations have more dashboards than decisions that depend on them, 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, data quality management and dashboard design in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of report automation rather than escalating it, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Spot where data quality management is failing before it becomes a finding
- Make a decision about dashboard design without waiting for a specialist
- Improve data cleaning and preparation within their own organisation
