About this course

Tableau Desktop is one of the most popular data visualization and BI platforms in the world, and a powerful tool for business analysts, data scientists, and business intelligence professionals alike.

This course is a practical, hands-on introduction to Tableau, created to teach you how to connect, visualize, analyze, and present your insights in the form of visualization to your stakeholders.

We'll start with a quick introduction to the Tableau platform and interface, then connect and transform our first dataset. From there we'll explore sorting, filtering, and grouping tools, build and format visuals, viz animations, create hierarchies and sets, create calculated fields, the building blocks of Tableau like role & type, dimensions, and measures and finally tie it all together with dynamic, interactive dashboards and stories with optimizing device layouts.

Together we will go through the steps in creating various charts like bars, stacked bars, scatter plots, histograms, Line charts, trend lines, etc. We will create filters in our data for analysis and also enhance our view using various color and font options.

By the end of the course, you'll have a thorough and well-rounded understanding of Tableau Desktop and can feel confident adding Tableau skills to your professional resume and also apply these tools to your own projects.
