Spring Training Series: How to use Emergency Management Dashboards to Plan, Prepare, and Respond

2020 Spring Training Series
What will the training involve?
As part of the Controller’s Office efforts to increase usage of the new COVID-19 Daily Dashboards in SF Reports & Analytics, we will be offering short, weekly webcasts designed to show City employees how to best utilize these new reports for emergency management.
From Thursday, April 16 through Thursday, May 21, we will be hosting six weekly 30-minute webcasts led by Systems Division functional and reporting experts. During these webcasts, participants will learn how to use these dashboards to access the information they need to make informed decisions. All six courses will be recorded and posted in SF Learning, and final presentations will be attached below, including answers to all your questions submitted during the live webcasts.
Please refer to the training schedule below for upcoming webcasts by topic and audience:
