Having collected and studied the needed data, what might be the best means of developing a narrative? Training participants will focus in this session on how to explain the story being told by the data. This segment may involve case studies from different institutions to discuss what works in a particular example or what may be missing. The session may include discussions of data visualization, the role of assessment in strategic planning, as well as how to use the story in activities of advocacy and outreach.
