Are you planning on taking the Desktop Specialist Certification Exam soon?
In this course we will work through all the concepts covered in the Desktop Specialist Certification Exam plus we will apply these concepts to a case study. By the end of the course you will be taught each concept and also tested as there are quizzes after each section and a practice test modeled after the real exam. Applying the concepts in a case study will really hammer home the concepts… It’s much easier to remember something you’ve done than something you’ve just passively watched someone else do!
Use Tableau to Analyze and Visualize Sales Data To Develop Actionable Insights
Visualizing current and historical sales data can result in huge insights that aren’t
readily apparent in the day to day grind. The right visualizations help quickly identify trends and
outliers (positive or negative), which help to adjust course for more profitable sales & marketing
as well as a more efficient and informed supply chain.
Contents and Overview
Throughout this course we will work through a sample consulting engagement where the client wants us to conduct a data discovery on their sales data. They need help planning for the upcoming year both in their marketing department and also their supply chain. We will use their raw sales data to come up with insights for both teams.
This project will focus our approach to Tableau forcing us to learn the basics while solving a real world business problem. My hope is that you’ll feel like you’re learning a new problem solving tool not just a series of functions in a software interface. The course structure is modeled after the Tableau Certification Exam Guide and broken down into the following sections:
