Spreadsheets are everywhere in government. Clear charts are not. Learn how AI can help you turn messy data into visuals that land with ministers, citizens and colleagues.
This event will explore how civil servants can use AI to speed up data visualisation, improve clarity and design and demonstrate insights with more confidence. You will learn practical tips to turn a question into a chart, choose the right visual for your message, refine visual layouts quickly and spot-check outputs so they stay accurate, accessible and ready for decision-makers.
The AI Skills Lab is a monthly series of virtual, 30-minute events, brought to you as part of the Government AI Campus. Think of them as your shortcut to working smarter, one task at a time, with tips and hacks from experts already using AI regularly to augment their work.
Who should join:
Public servants working with data for reporting, analysis, performance, policy, communications or service delivery.
