Throughout the global outbreak of Covid-19, the value of data and the communication of that data has been paramount. As an anxious global population collectively experiencing this troubling uncertainty, we have looked to our governments, to the health authorities and to the news media to satisfy our spike in appetite for data-driven understanding.

In this webinar Andy Kirk will presents some observations about the challenges, responsibilities and successes witnessed in the communication of data about this subject. He will look at some of the key lessons to emerge concerning best practices and less recommended practices, as the coverage of this subject and the visuals used constantly evolves.

Join our webinar where Andy will share key lessons to help illuminate all viewers with fresh ideas for how to overcome the challenges of presenting your data clearly and concisely.
