Course overview
🙌 Enrol in this 2-week interactive course to learn how to structure, design and present your data insights to inspire action, and ignite change.
🚀 Master a design process based on real-world examples to organise your storytelling workflow, save you time and increase your chances of success.
💡 Engage in interactive workshops, access dozens of templates and resources, and get valuable feedback from an international group of peers.
01
Transform cluttered, messy charts into beautiful and engaging designs that impress and are fast to read
02
Turn boring data presentations into clear and compelling narratives that captivate your audience
03
Become a persuasive communicator whose data insights spark action and make a difference
What is the data telling you? You'll learn how to craft a compelling message and narrative arc and apply them to both standalone charts and longer pieces (infographics, dashboards etc.)
Form follows function. You'll master the intricacies of visual perception and information hierarchy to turn your graphics into impactful story components. The methods you'll learn will work in Tableau, Power BI, Flourish, Illustrator, or any other tool of your choice.
Just because you're presenting data, it doesn't mean you can't get creative. You'll practice a mix of strategies from Aristotle, TED and Nancy Duarte that will transform your typical presentations into engaging data talks.
The process of data storytelling can feel messy and overwhelming. To guide you through the maze, you'll learn my tried-and-true design process inspired by UX design and journalism best practices.

Data Storytelling & Design Expert, Founder of Parabole Studio
Hi! I'm Evelina, an information designer with almost a decade of experience in data and communication. Today, I run Parabole Studio — a data storytelling and design agency that helps organisations communicate their impact through engaging data stories. I've worked with clients such as the UN, Dior, the French Ministry of Finance, the Lancet, Mazars and many more. I also write a popular newsletter called The Plot.
Most of all, I love teaching and interacting with data professionals from around the world. The content of this course is a unique combination of my experiences in the fields of data, design and public speaking, and I'm really excited to share it with you!
01
Module 1: Craft a compelling narrative
A successful story needs a solid structure. In this first module, you'll learn how to craft an engaging story arc and build any data story from the ground up.
Outcome: an effective structure for a data project of your choice (dashboard, infographic or a single chart)
02
Module 2: Design for impact
What makes good chart design? In this module, you'll dive deep into design and data visualisation principles that help you build powerful visuals for your data stories.
Outcome: clear and eye-catching graphic(s)
03
Module 3: Present effectively
Your storyline and graphics need to be delivered eloquently for them to have impact. This is why in this third and final module of the course, you'll practice effective public speaking techniques for your presentations.
Outcome: your best-ever slide deck for a data presentation
04
Bonus: Practice live and get feedback
There will also be many opportunities to get live instructor and peer feedback on your work, and address your specific challenges.
Active learning
The live sessions will be based on the "learn-do" model, which means you'll get to practice the concepts as you learn them.
Peer feedback
Between each lesson, you'll have projects to submit. You'll get feedback not only from the instructor but also from an international group of peers.
Async resources
Videos, articles and templates, as well as the community space, will be available in the course page forever.
