Simple Communication and Presentation of Figures Training Sessions

This course is aimed at anyone who has to explain or present numbers to colleagues, management teams, elected members, non-executive directors or the press. Participants learn:

• to present figures in user-friendly ways so the audience will understand;
• when to use a table, when to use a graph and which graph to use when; and
• to write and talk about figures so the audience will remember them later.

After this course participants will be able to present figures in user-friendly ways that:

• aid decision making because people understand the facts;
• save time and shorten meetings; and
• make reports powerful and arguments persuasive.

“A clear, concise and fun course, replacing the ‘mystery’ of numbers with clarity and confidence - a day well spent.”
Alun Housago,
Norfolk County Council

“Excellent course. I would highly recommend this to anyone fighting to make sense of numbers.”
