Tableau is a powerful analytical tool, but learning its ins and outs can feel daunting. Whether you are a first time user, shaking off some rust, or trying to get a colleague up to speed, this video is designed to give an overview of the Tableau interface and get a user comfortable with creating worksheets, calculations and dashboards.

Most Tableau content is piecemeal so it would take 10-20 videos to learn all the concepts at once you need to be successful in navigating Tableau. We are providing this long-form video to walk a user with beginner-level skills through Tableau Desktop from opening to product to building an operational dashboard.
