Course Description

Are you interested in data analytics and (self-service BI) business intelligence? Are you already using Tableau or plan to use it soon?

You might have already seen Tableau as a visual analytics tool in action. You might have created Tableau dashboards yourself. But as you know, the result of visualizing your data is only the tip of the iceberg. As data analysts spend a huge amount of their time cleaning and preparing data, this process is quite tedious. However, it is most important to get the data cleaned and in the right format.

Meet Tableau Prep Builder! A great tool that can help us in doing data preparation/data cleaning fast and efficiently.

In this Tableau Prep Builder course, you will learn all you need to know to use the power of Tableau Prep Builder for your own data-cleaning tasks. The course is developed for beginners. Hence, no prior knowledge is required even though working with Tableau before would be an advantage.

This course will first explore the Tableau Prep Builder interface and then perform three case studies to understand how to use Tableau Prep Builder for data cleaning and data preparation.

By the end of this course, you will be able to use the power of Tableau Prep Builder for data cleaning.
