Who it's for: Data Analysts, Business Intelligence pros, and anyone who works with Big Data on a regular basis.
What it is: Tableau is a popular tool for analyzing and visualizing data, with powerful tools like interactive dashboards, custom reports, and more.
What you'll learn: In this 4-part series, we start with the basics, giving you an overview of Tableau and showing you how to create your first visualizations and dashboards. Then, we jump into working with data, with row-level, aggregate, and table calculations. Next, we refine our visualizations and dashboards to make them look great and tell effective stories. We take some time to go over trends, distributions, and forecasting, and then end with sharing data stories and some advanced Tableau tips and tricks.
