Numbers can only tell so much on paper. As the saying goes, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” The value of analysis is very limited if it cannot be clearly communicated to others through the use of Visualisations. This can lead to missed business opportunities. The 1-day course will cover the analytics process, data cleaning techniques, how to conduct exploratory data analysis within the data and Visualisation techniques that help to “tell THE story” that resides within their data.
