Data is meaningful only when information is extracted from it. That information can tell a story, and the best data analysts are magnificent storytellers. But no matter how accomplished a data analyst, a story can't be told compellingly without visualizing what the data says and a key part of a data analyst's role is in reporting on what the data is saying. In this course, you will explore data visualization reports, beginning with data visualization tools and best practices. Then you will focus on examples of data visualization translating requirements for reports, key report components, report best practices, corporate standardization, and style guides. Next, you will discover how to create a report and examine the differences between static and dynamic reports, ad-hoc and self-service reports, and recurring vs. tactical reports. Finally, you will learn how to implement various design and documentation elements in reports, including using charts and graphs to enhance your report. This course can be used to prepare for CompTIA Data+ (DA0-001) exam.
