Overview

Tableau is our most popular series classes. A green flag beside a date on the right means that a session has met the minimum enrollment levels and is running. However, it is common for dates for this course to fill weeks in advance. Even if a date has a green flag, you might not be able to get into that session if it is full. To avoid disappointment, it is best to register for this class at least three weeks in advance.

With so many competing technologies, Tableau has emerged as a powerful favorite in the world of Business Intelligence solutions. This course will take your Tableau skills to the next level by teaching you best practice, along with the most sought after dashboard designs.

You are about to embark upon an intense, but amusing journey that will provide you with an arsenal of innovative techniques. Your new toolset will help you re-use your current Tableau worksheets and to create new ones for the purpose of including those worksheets on dashboards that you will be proud to share. Users will enjoy interacting with your dashboards for the purpose of getting deep analytical information from them and they will be impressed with their flexibility. Most important, the class will overview various business scenarios that translate into different types of dashboards and you will leave with that understanding.

By the end of the course, you should be able to create effective dashboards on your own and you will also walk away with class files that help you get a head start.
