The Curve, led by Third Sector Lab, offers free digital skills training.

Dr Gelareh Holbrook is a Business Intelligence Developer at the North Sea Transition Authority, where she uses data and technology to make complex information more accessible, meaningful and useful for decision-making.

The Curve is delighted to host Gelareh for a practical and accessible workshop which will help charities use data to achieve real world results i.e. better decisions, stronger funding stories and great impact.  She will explore how organisations can make better use of data and digital tools to support their work and communicate the change they create for people and places.

Using relatable examples and guided activities, Gelareh will help participants consider the information they already hold, the questions they want it to answer, and how it can be transformed into meaningful insights. The session is designed to be engaging and jargon-free, with practical ideas participants can adapt within their own organisations, regardless of their current level of technical experience.

This workshop will be relevant to many roles across the charity and non-profit sector, from CEOs to communications professionals, fundraisers and more.
