Creation of dashboards for analysing and visualising performance key figures for different sectors in order to effectively visualise data and support decision-making.
Description
Our Data Artist training course teaches practice-based skills, enabling participants to create visually appealing and functional dashboards which communicate information effectively. Participants will receive a sound introduction to the fundamentals of data visualisation and learn how to purposefully implement visual perception and design principles. They will design various chart types to optimally represent data and get to grips with dashboard layout and composition.
Particular focus is placed on data storytelling as a method for presenting complex information clearly and comprehensibly. Participants will develop and implement wireframes in order to learn the creative process of designing dashboards in a practical manner. Applying this knowledge in Power BI will enable participants to implement their designs professionally and efficiently.
The course also presents methods for analysing and optimising existing dashboards in order to maximise their effectiveness. Participants will learn to use templates for redesigns, as well as the creation of user-defined visualisations using Deneb. Various visualisation options and the integration of SVG graphics make for flexible, effective visualisations. The course also takes a look at future trends and developments in data visualisation in order to help participants design solutions which will remain competitive in the long term.

Our training approach
From the needs analysis to the awarding of certificates, we offer customized training courses, flexibly designed and carried out according to your requirements.
If you are interested in in-house training, we will start by identifying your needs and discussing your objectives. This discussion forms the basis for an initial offer.
As soon as the framework data has been clarified, our trainers start adapting the training content. Many of our training courses have a modular structure and offer the opportunity to design the agenda flexibly. Training courses that prepare for certifications, on the other hand, are less flexible. Here, however, you can set the content focus according to your wishes.
You will receive all relevant information in advance of the training. The training will then take place in the room of your choice and at the agreed time. Our trainers will adapt to your requirements.
After completing the training, all participants receive a certificate confirming their participation. You will also have the opportunity to give us feedback on the content and the course. We are always happy to receive praise and suggestions for improvement.
