Data-driven journalism is the increasingly popular process of analysing and filtering data to find new stories or different angles on existing stories. This is a one day course that will teach journalists to how use the powerful data-analysis tools in Microsoft Excel to assess data from different sources and look for stories within the facts.
This course assumes a working knowledge of Excel, if you do not have that, we can run a tailored course for you. Please call to discuss this option. This is not a course that will teach you to write a story, if you wish to hone your writing skills, you should consider taking our Introduction to Feature Writing or Introduction to News Writing courses as well. To attend this course you need a working knowledge of Excel. You should be able to create and format your own spreadsheets and workbooks and create formulas. If you don't know Excel, we can run a tailored course for you. Please call to discuss this option.
