Join us with presenter David Kane, for a demo of the functionality of 'Flourish' followed by a practical session where you can start using this tool to visualise your own data, with support from David and the Datawise London team.

David will provide a demonstration for about an hour looking at the range of functionality Flourish has to offer, including showing us a collection of maps that he has used the tool to build for 360 Giving and beyond.

We will then have time for questions and a short break before we move into a practical 45 minute session with help on hand to get started with Flourish.

You will need to set up a free Flourish account to participate in the practical session, and we'll send further details nearer the time.

Is this course for me?

This course is for anyone who works for a small charity or community group in London and wants to learn how to use visualisations to tell the stories of their data.

No experience is necessary.

Participants will need to join from a laptop or PC to participate in the hands on exercises.

Format: Online technical group training

This is an online interactive live training session. You'll take part in interactive exercises such as breakout room discussions, polls or chat conversations. You will be asked to complete individual technical tasks on your PC or laptop.

You will not be able to join this training using a mobile device.

It's likely that you will need to either create online accounts or download appropriate software, which we'll tell you about in advance.
