Data Visualization: The Basics

This is a three-part training designed for intelligence analysts, to help them learn more about using data effectively. This training will equip analysts with the tools and knowledge to expand their use of data and visualizations to be more effective and deeper – helping them bridge the gap between their analysis and their busy readers who don’t always have time to take in a longer form paper. The course will include familiarization exercises with different types of data, understanding today’s information landscape, distinguishing between different types of datasets, the importance of using data in our analysis, bias and misinterpretation of data, and more. This course is free for ERI Situation Room subscribers and $500 for non subscribers. There is a morning and afternoon iteration of this course which meets for an hour each Wednesday (from April 6) or Thursday (from April 7) for three weeks. Classes are virtual and take place at 8:30am EST on Wednesday and 4pm EST on Thursdays. Please email us at eriteam@emergentriskinternational.com to register.
