OverviewAll organisations have a wealth of data to draw upon to create engaging content, but knowing where to start is a challenge. This interactive workshop has been designed for communications professionals who want to incorporate charts, graphs, and infographics into their content, but do not have a background in statistics. The workshop includes individual and breakout activities to immediately apply what you’ve learned. Participants will be given a powerful new framework to identify data-rich storytelling opportunities, and learn how to collaborate more effectively with colleagues and clients to produce unique, compelling, and accessible content.
