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, 3-hour sessions. We've taught 4,000+ students Tableau since 2014 and we'll share all the tips and tricks we've learned across many trainings and projects!

Math Functions
  • Number Functions Review
  • When to Use the ZN Function
  • The ABS Function



Aggregation

Logic Functions
  • Basics of Operators and IF THEN
  • Grouping with IF THEN
  • How to Create Dynamic, Color-Changing Labels

  • Regular Expressions (REGEXP)



Date Functions

  • Comparing Time Periods Apples to Apples

  • W INDOW Functions
  • Keeping Only Recent Transactions
  • What Does "Specific Dimensions" Mean?



Best Practices
  • Naming Calculated Fields

  • Be able to build calculated fields on your own.

What will you get?

In addition to two half-days of instruction, attendees will walk away with a 100+ page digital manual, data files to revisit the concepts on their own later, and access to class recordings for two weeks.
