And
Thursday 16 March 2006, 10am-4.30pm (registration from 9.30am)
Course presenter: Ed Swires-Hennessy (Local Government Data Unit - Wales)
This course is the foundation to all presentations of statistical information. The basic principles of presenting information in tables, charts, maps and text are explained. These are illustrated and then re-enforced through practical exercises.
Participants will be equipped to disseminate statistical messages in a clear, accurate and meaningful way across various media to general audiences.
The course is for anyone who is involved in communicating statistics to non-statisticians or who reports on data - of any description - within organisations, to specific communities and to the general public where a message is being given. It is not necessary to be a statistician as no formulae are presented. The day will be a mix of presentation, tuition and exercises which all reinforce the communication message."
