There are many reasons why information is easier to explain\, explore and use to convince others in a visual format. This session will provide you with some introductory theory and basic skills to make your data come to life using Tableau. \nPlease bring a laptop for your own use during the workshop with the latest version of Tableau Public installed. \nPlease note: All software installation must be done before the workshop. Please ensure you follow account creation or software installation instructions. Out of courtesy to the class\, we will not be able to troubleshoot software set up during the class time. If you have any issues\, please contact the IT Help Desk. \nRegister online.
