Course description

Imagine by 2020, the number of connected devices will exceed 50 billion. How does it affect us as an individual and companies? It means there will be enormous amounts of data (human and machine). The ability to use that data capitalize that tremendous opportunity is highly beneficial for both the individual and companies.
Join us for this two-day Tableau Boot Camp class and find out how we can leverage the power of visualization. We will explore data visualization and how we can use it to better understand data using Tableau. We will also build dashboard analytics applications through hands-on exercises starting with the building components of analytics architecture through development, deployment and simple administrative functions. This course will cover the fundamentals of Tableau visualization and build the knowledge base necessary to tackle more advanced topics offered for analysts, developers and administrators.
The majority of this course is hands-on in a secure cloud environment. It teaches you how to implement data visualization techniques and practices to achieve better visualization, connecting to different data sources, creating dashboards and successful project deployments.
