Working with Tableau isn't just lucrative - it's fun! And unlike most data analysis tools, Tableau uses a drag-and-drop interface, so you don't need to be a programmer to learn Tableau. If you can learn Excel then you can learn Tableau.
Learn and Apply Fundamental Skills
Get a step-by-step walk-through of the fundamentals of data visualization and data discovery with Tableau. You'll learn how to:
Sort, filter, and group your data
Create tables, bar charts, line charts
Show location using geographic maps
Aggregate with sum, average, min, max, and counts
Create new fields using calculations
Combine data using joins, blends, unions, and relationships.
But just watching the videos won't make you an expert. For mastery, you need to go hands-on by answering questions that reinforce the skills from the videos. To go hands-on, you'll install the Public version of the Tableau software, which is available for free and easy to install on Mac or Windows. Then you'll download the sample data sets included with the course, and Tableau to answer questions about this sample data.
Prepare for the Tableau Desktop Certified Associate Exam
After completing the units on fundamental Tableau skills, solidify your knowledge by answer questions similar to those on the Tableau Certified Associate certification exam. If you get stuck on a question, you can watch a video presenting the solution.
Please note that the Tableau Desktop Certified Associate exam is retiring on October 31st, 2021. Check the Tableau website for more detail. We are currently in the process of upgrading this course to cover the new Tableau Data Analyst exam.
Course includes access to three full-length Tableau Certified Associate Certification.
