MORE THAN JUST A COURSE
Tableau Prep
This one-day hands-on course will teach you how to use Tableau Prep, Tableau’s data preparation, data cleansing, and ETL tool. In this course, you will learn how to get your data in the right format for optimal efficiency while in Tableau itself. Students will be able to overcome many of their thorniest data cleaning and preparation issues, enabling their Tableau analysis and visualization process to be smoother and easier. In some cases, it can replace or ease data prep challenges being solved in other ways currently, such as using SAS for ETL processes or waiting long periods of time for IT to get the data just so, or doing a lot of manual rework in Excel.
