Adopting new technology is daunting, especially if you are coming from another platform you already know well. Many people that are learning Tableau have a background in Excel and maybe even SQL so they understand how calculations work but don't know Tableau's syntax yet.

This workshop will bridge that gap. We'll condense months of learning into three, half-days. I'll be sharing all the tips and tricks I've learned from using the product for four years, teaching 1000+ students and working with dozens of companies.
