Chapter 1 - How to Learn Tableau: My Top Five Tips
Tableaus mission is to help people see and understand their data, and I can tell you that after youve mastered a few of the fundamentals, it is an extremely easy way to do just that. For basic analyses, such as looking at a measure such as sales, and slicing and dicing that measure by a dimension such as region, Im not sure anything could be easier than Tableau. However, there can be a substantial learning curve required to get exactly what you want out of the software. In fact, for me personally it has been a career-long education spanning eight years using Tableau. While Ive been through some growing pains and experienced some frustration learning the tool, I mostly view my lack of perfection as good news. The challenge keeps my job interesting and I continue to get excited discovering innovative solutions to complex problems that have led to several successful visualizations.
This chapter shares my top tips for how to learn Tableau, whether you have a budget of $0 or $5,000.
