The How to Tell Stories with Data course was very eye-opening for me. A must for any data professional seeking to tell a story in more imaginative ways than the traditional pie chart or Excel chart.

The data visualisation training with Laura and Alastair was the best four hours I spent last year. It gave me great insight into how to make our stories more accessible, and easier to understand. So glad I did this course – hope there are more to come!
