Data Visualization w/Tableau

Catalog description

This course is the third in a four-part series focused on Business / Data Analytics and is designed for community college students. In this course, students will explore the role and application of data visualization in the data analysis process using Tableau. They will create and design both static and dynamic tables, data visualizations, dashboards, and stories while incorporating visual design best practices to better communicate insights to intended audience, such as business stakeholders. Students will also connect multiple external data sources (e.g., Text Files, Excel, SQL databases) to Tableau and optimize large data to efficiently wrangle and analyze real-industry data. The course is focused on project-based learning and prepares students for the skills identified in the Tableau Desktop Specialist certification. Pathstream has built this course in partnership with Silicon Valley Bank and Tableau.
