For many of us in health care, the word “data” comes up a lot. We are collecting it, improving it, disseminating it, and – above all – making decisions with it. But are we drawing the correct conclusions in time? And how can we present our data clearly to communicate findings?
In this session, you’ll learn how to organize your data in clear, visual formats that help your audience understand what you are trying to say, and ensure that your take-home messages are received. Presenters Danielle Simpson & Jennie Aitken will show you how to use the principles of effective data presentation to communicate difficult concepts, and translate data into decisions from the unit to provincial levels. No prior experience with data analysis is required to benefit from this session!
By the end of this session, participants will be able to apply the principles of effective data presentation and analyze how cognitive biases impact the way we understand and interpret data. Attendees will also receive helpful links to free online analytics and data display tools, data visualization blogs, online resources, and a list of future training opportunities.
