Our visual guide gathers the basic knowledge of working with data visualization in a smart and simple way.

The guide contains practical topics on dashboard design, best practices and tips from data visualization experts and a selection of tasks, games and warm-ups for better understanding of data visualization.
This is not an instruction-book on how to work in a BI tool or create spreadsheets. Instead, this is a user-friendly guide that describes the main milestones of data visualization
