Description
How many times have you been asked to create a presentation or report using charts and infographics to summarize your assessment data? How do you get from a pile of data to a “pretty” visual? Do you think this is beyond your skill set because you “aren’t an artist”?
90% of information transmitted to the brain is visual and visuals are processed 60,000 times faster than text. In a world that has become increasingly visual with social media as a driving force, the written word may not always be the best way to communicate the results of your assessment. Data must be “used and useful” as part of the assessment process. As technology allows for endless choices for data visualization, honing your skill sets in thinking through the process of how to visualize data effectively so you can tell your story is key.
Hear from our expert presenter on how to determine your message and how data fits into that message; how to determine the best way to visualize data including how/when to choose different graphs, charts and icons; and tips for simple ways to use the technology you already have to create simple and visually impactful reports, dashboards and infographics.
Create accurate and compelling graphics that transforms data into information so you can successfully tell your story.
