Managing Dashboard Design
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers SQL querying and KPI definition from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with data governance, data modelling and visual encoding choices in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put data governance on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against established visualisation principles
- Spot where data modelling is failing before it becomes a finding
- Explain visual encoding choices to someone who does not do the work
- Review data cleaning and preparation and say plainly whether it is working
