Course Overview
The era of "big data" has exploded due to the rise of cloud computing, which provides an abundance of computational power and storage allowing organizations of all sorts to capture and store data.

This course will introduce you to Tableau, which was built to connect to a wide range of data sources and allow users to quickly create visualizations of connected data to gain insights, show trends, and create reports. You will learn Tableau's data connection capabilities and visualization features which go far beyond those that can be found in spreadsheets, allowing you to create compelling and interactive worksheets, dashboards, and stories, that bring your data to life and allow you to take thoughtful action.
