Database managers are designed to allow you to quickly search, summarize and connect databases. They are one of the most powerful tools for journalists. While they take a little longer to learn than spreadsheet software, they are one of the three basic tools for a data journalist.
This session will demonstrate how they be used to produce groundbreaking stories.

Those taking our hands-on data training should bring their own laptops or tablets and, if possible, have Microsoft Excel (the spreadsheet software) loaded on their computers.
