Overview:
People understand visual information quicker and more easily than
numeric information, yet many professionals who work with large volumes
of data routinely present information and analysis using numbers in a
tabular format like an Excel spreadsheet. In a recent survey, more than
56%1 of respondents said they want to not only see data
presented visually, but they want more types of visualizations to choose
from and over 70%1said they want more interactivity with the
data.
Research shows we more readily understand visuals, and businesses are
demanding more and better visualization of data. Visualizations help
people spot trends, anomalies, exceptions and outliers. However, we are
not naturally good at presenting data visually. This course will provide
a grounding in basic data visualization concepts.
