Tableau Desktop: Part 2
Course Description:
Data-backed visualizations allow anyone to explore, analyze, and report insights and trends from data. Tableau® software is designed for this purpose. Tableau was built to connect to a wide range of data sources and allows users to quickly create visualizations of connected data to gain insights, show trends, and create reports. Beyond the fundamental capabilities of creating data driven visualizations, Tableau allows users to manipulate data with calculations to show insights, make visualizations interactive, and perform statistical analysis. This gives users the ability to create and share data driven insights with peers, executives, and clients.COURSE OBJECTIVES:
In this course, you will perform advanced data visualization and data blending with Tableau. You will:
- Blend data multiple sources.
- Join data.
- Access data in PDFs.
- Refine visualizations with sets and parameters.
- Analyze data with calculations.
- Visualize data with advanced calculations.
- Perform statistical analysis and forecasting.
- Create geographic visualizations.
- Get answers with Ask and Explain
