Tableau advanced training

Analysing data is one thing, visualizing and communicating complex analyses and insights is a whole different story. Tableau is an innovative data visualisation software that lets you connects to nearly any data source, from spreadsheets to Hadoop. With its intuitive drag-and-drop design, Tableau brings data to life in a visually appealing and interactive way. Because of its versatility and its revolutionary approach, Tableau has been named a leader in Gartner's BI Magic Quadrant report for the fourth consecutive year.

This advanced course goes more in-depth with complex table calculations, the use of parameters and other integrations with for example R.
