That's right. For last few months, I've been busily recording an on-demand version of my popular Practical Charts course. I'm pretty happy with the results at this point, and so have scheduled the launch for June 25th, with a short "pre-sale" period beginning today.
Practical Charts On Demand features the same course content that I've delivered in live workshops for NASA, Bloomberg, Yale, Visa, Shopify, the IRS, the U.N. and many others, but in pre-recorded video lessons that can be watched on your own schedule (and in your own time zone!) at an affordable price.
During the current pre-sale period (i.e., before June 25th), Practical Charts On Demand can be pre-ordered for 25% off the regular price of US$649 per student. Volume discounts are also available when ordering three or more licenses for your team (contact us for details).
Practical Charts On Demand includes:
6.5 hours of professionally produced video in 44 easy-to-digest lessons, plus one hour of offline exercises to practice what you learned
Complimentary EPUB (eBook) and PDF editions of my Practical Charts and More Practical Charts books (U.S. and Canadian customers can also get 25% off paperback editions)
30-page Cheat Sheet PDF for quickly referencing essential guidelines after you’ve completed the course
Access to biweekly live online “office hours” Q&A sessions with Nick (see the schedule of upcoming office hours sessions)
A certificate of completion
The goals of Practical Charts On Demand are the same as those for the live version of the Practical Charts course, i.e., to...
Teach you how to create charts that are as effective and professional looking as those created by someone with decades of chart-making experience, and that wow audiences with their clarity and usefulness.
Teach you these skills quickly (the course takes about 7.5 hours to complete).
Allow you to learn these skills easily, with many guidelines and frameworks not found in other courses that are explained using simple language and realistic examples with no theory or jargon.
Equip you to competently handle all common data visualization challenges and design choices (choosing a chart type, deciding when to include zero in a chart’s scale, handling outliers, etc.).
Ensure that you avoid dozens of common data visualization mistakes that leave audiences confused, unmoved or misled.
Make you the go-to data visualization pro in your team or organization and add a highly in-demand data skill to your resume.
A detailed description of the course content can be found on the Practical Charts course information page.
I'm confident that Practical Charts On Demand will fundamentally change the way that you think about creating charts, as it has for so many others already. Ready to get serious about becoming a true dataviz pro? Pre-order Practical Charts On Demand before June 25th to get 25% off.
