Description

Learn the basics and the advanced concepts of Tableau to create stunning and detailed visualizations. This course provides step-by-step guidance on how we can make data easier to understand and easier to interpret by using visualizations. We'll be working with Tableau 2020.3.

Visualizations provide us with a clearer understanding of data in a shorter span of time. They prove to be a powerful tool to make analyses and identify patterns. They also form an integral part of data storytelling by helping in creating narratives. Tableau's remarkable visualization capabilities make it a popular choice for data visualization. In this course, we will understand the capabilities of Tableau that makes it a popular software. Discover the basic tableau concepts and go over some basic charts that can be created easily using Tableau. We will then go over how we can create dashboards and stories to present contextual information of the data. Finally, we will learn some advanced features in Tableau, such as data modelling, controlling the granularity of the visualizations, and performing table calculations. By the end of the course, you will be able to use Tableau effectively and will be able to create sophisticated visualizations easily.
