Our workshops and lectures are ideal to introduce a topic or teach a specific technique. Based on the number of participants and duration we can make the workshop interactive or more lecture-style. Either way, the audience will learn new insights and skills that they can apply to improve their research stories.

Excel is a great tool for building graphs. Move beyond distracting default settings and make dumbbell dot plots, panel bars, and more visuals that will communicate your data story better.
