Tableau Professional Desktop
Tableau Professional Desktop
Certi fication
• You will be able to format numbers and dates, and add labels, tooltips and animation.
• You can also become used to more advanced features, such as Calculated Fields, Parameters and
Hierarchies.
• By the end of the course, you will, with some experience, have the knowledge to take (and pass)
the Tableau Qualified Associate certification.
Requirements
• Before you begin this course, you should have a computer with access to the internet, and be able
to install programs.
• That's it! The more experience in reporting using other packages, the better, but it is not essential.
• You need to have a 64-bit PC, or a Mac. To be honest, that's most modern computers - you would
probably know if you have a 32-bit computer (for which you can't download Tableau).
Description
UPDATED FOR TABLEAU 2021.
This course covers all of the content required for the Desktop Professional Certi fication.
Do you already use reporting software such as Access, SSRS or WebI? Or is this your first reporting software tool? Either
way, welcome.
In this course, learn the skills that Tableau want you to know, and add another tool to your CV, and even go for either of
the first two of ficial Tableau certi fications.
Tableau is one of the most requested reporting tools that are requested in the job market, and the ability to being able to
use it now could be very useful for your current work, and your next job hunt.
We'll download and install for free Tableau Public, which gives you most of the capabilities of the full-cost Tableau
Desktop. We'll start by creating our first visualizations (vizzes) and investigate the Tableau interface.
We'll create dashboards and storyboards, so that you can tell a story. We'll create maps, hierarchies, groups and sets, and
all sorts of chart types. We'll enhance our charts with reference lines and bands, and extend our data analysis with trends
and forecasting. We'll add formula calculations, quick table calculations, and LOD calculations. Finally, we investigate
advanced data connections and mapping.
The course will take around a little more than 12 hours to complete, but completing this will enable you to create vizzes,
dashboards and stories of your own, and know how to overcome common problems.
The course increases in dif ficulty slowly, so you'll create for instance a basic bar chart, then turn it into a stacked bar chart,
and adding coloring and information through tooltips and labels, step by step.
The course is fairly relaxed - there will be a few "wrong turns", so you can see what problems might arise, but every lesson
works towards an end goal at a relatively slow pace, so you can follow on your own computer easily. I assume that you
know how to use a computer, including installing programs, but the actual analysis will be at a basic level, and I'll introduce
every component as we go on.
At the end of the course, you can download a certi ficate of completion, so you can show everyone your new-found skills,
prepare for the of ficial Tableau certi fications, and be able to start creating analyses for yourselves.
The course is recorded on a combination of Tableau 2018, 2019 and 2020, but most of it will also work on Tableau 10 and
Tableau 9.
