The newly launched online course aims to promote the use of advanced visualisations in policy making. The five-hour course draws on multiple disciplines, learning formats and best practices to offer content that is both engaging and insightful for a wide range of audiences: policy makers, students, journalists, data specialists and charities, among others.
Who is this course for?
This course is open to everyone. That said, people who would find it especially useful are
- Public sector staff who either work with data directly (analysts, data officers etc.) or depend on it to make informed decisions e.g. department managers, councilors, mayors, CEOs, elected officials
- Social scientists, journalists and civil society groups interested in exploring social issues through data visualisations
- University students studying towards a degree in transport, urban mobility, data science or related fields
- GIS specialists, traffic engineers, web developers and Open Source enthusiasts
After completing this course, participants will:
- Gain an understanding of how transport policy is being made and what impact the emergence of big data has had on the process
- Know how to formulate policy challenges related to urban mobility and find ways to address them through policy visuals
- Be able to use policy visualisations to engage stakeholders and gather policy evidence through co-creation techniques
