- Venue
- Department for Work and Pensions Benton Park, Longbenton, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE98 1YX
In these workshops, participants review a statistical publication and suggest improvements. There are usually around six to eight participants from across the Government Statistical Service (GSS).
Why should you take part in a peer review meeting?
Taking part in one of these workshops gives you the chance to:
- work with colleagues from the wider GSS
- gain a fresh perspective on statistical publications
- gain a deeper understanding of what makes a good statistical release
What will be covered?
Participants will discuss the publication in detail, using a fairly loose agenda. They consider:
- uses for the publication
- first impressions
- titles
- key messages
- context
- interpretation
- language
