Data Visual Analytics - How to increase and improve your use of data in decision making


Thanks a lot for the course. I found it really useful. I appreciate the slide with information on the visualization process and the slide which summarized many chart types by their usage. There are a lot of good examples of charts that are used less frequently but very helpful for specific tasks. Also, during the training, we watch some really interesting examples of data visualization.
