We have all seen or created charts depicting data that have resulted in confusion, or worse, have unintentionally mislead readers. If you need to communicate data to any audience, this workshop will give you foundational knowledge and skills to become a Data Storyteller.

In Data Storytelling you will learn:

• What a “data story” is and how it differs from data reporting.

• A process to create clear and compelling data stories.

• How to combine your insights and findings with a visualization to help readers remember the story - and guide them to action.

Becoming a Data Storyteller is a practice. By applying what you learn in this workshop, you can learn to create data stories that will not only help readers remember what they’ve seen, but will help you guide your audience to action.

A note about the fee:

Workshops build skills, clear up confusion, and enhance professional development, but you didn’t need us to tell you that. Studies have found that by charging a small fee, it increases the likelihood that you will attend this workshop and reap the benefits of the training. For this reason, we charge a small fee to cover the cost of parking and food. However, if you are truly unable to pay the fee, please contact Sarah (sarah@ctdata.org) to attend this training free of charge.
