Data analysis, visualisation and storytelling are the ultimate power trio in influencing people and driving change. Data analysis uncovers insights; visualisation turns those insights into compelling visuals; and storytelling weaves them into narratives that resonate with your audience. Together, they transform raw numbers into actionable ideas, influencing decisions and sparking change.

Red & Yellow presents a data course made for modern marketers. Understanding data is no longer a nice to have – it’s a crucial skill for each and every business in today’s working world. If you’re looking to harness the power of data and information, this online short course will equip you with the skills you need to gather and present data, the elements of reporting and storytelling, as well as how to take data and transform it into actions with business intelligence.

People hear statistics, but they feel stories. In the context of marketing, data storytelling is one of the best ways to deliver an intuitive understanding of your campaign and other marketing-related results—not only does it communicate the value of your services in a thought-provoking way, but it also creates a level of transparency and accountability between you and your clients. In order to craft compelling marketing data stories, you first need to master marketing data analysis.

This course will teach you just that. Learn how to collect, analyze, interpret, and use marketing data to drive decision-making, problem-solving, and marketing strategy development.

Data visualisation is an objective visual presentation of figures, findings, or facts, while information design is more subjective and provides an audience with instruction or information in a visually compelling way. Because the line between the two storytelling approaches is somewhat blurry, this course aims to provide you with the tools to do both. Considering that the world as we know it today pivots around vast amounts of data and information, why not learn to create beautifully designed, data-driven infographics?

Framed from a strong design angle, this course will equip you with the skills necessary to interpret and transform objective data into visually engaging infographics. Additionally, you will also learn to design infographics with a more subjective nature or purpose, such as instruction.

All we’ve been hearing about lately is “design thinking”, yet most people don’t know what it means. Design thinking is not graphic design − it’s about transforming the way you think, building empathy with users, and creating and testing prototypes before applying novel solutions. Within 10 weeks you’ll have grasped the concept and practice of design thinking and be able to transform the way your business operates and how you make crucial decisions with your users in mind.

Design Thinking is a methodology that relies on a human-centered approach to find innovative solutions to problems. It applies to absolutely everything – be it product design, a government service, or corporate raison d’etre.
