The ability to communicate effectively through data visualization is a skill everyone can learn. While preparing our Infographics 101 course, I learned just how easy it is to prepare outstanding data visualizations — when you know what you’re doing. Infographics tell complex stories instantly. They are memorable. In fact, our brains are hard-wired to understand and remember the data in infographics better than any other form of communication. The stats are amazing!

Infographics 101 is a lot of fun — and it’s already one of our most popular courses. So, for all those people who are new to the art and science of creating infographics, check out this Infographic starter kit featuring common vector icons. It is a pdf but you can open it up in Illustrator and re-save it.
