Data Visualization

The Data Visualization course is designed to equip professionals with the skills to transform raw data into 

clear, compelling, and actionable visual stories. Participants will learn the principles of effective visualization, 

how to choose the right charts for different data types, and how to use leading tools (e.g., Excel, Power BI, 

Tableau) to create dashboards and reports that support better decision-making.

The course emphasizes storytelling with data—moving beyond charts to communicate insights, reveal trends, 

and influence business outcomes. Hands-on exercises and real-world datasets will be used to ensure practical
