Presented at WILSWorld 2017 on July 28th by WiLS Staffers Kate Clark, Administrative & Operations Coordinator, Melody Clark, Community Liaison / Service Specialist, and Stef Morrill, Director. This workshop will provide a hands-on introduction to Tableau, the industry leader in data visualization. By the end of this session, you’ll not only understand what Tableau can do, you’ll have done some of it yourself! You’ll connect data to Tableau, create basic visualizations, develop dashboards, and more. Participants will ideally bring their own laptop, with Tableau installed (we’ll share more details when you register!), but will not need to supply their own data. We’ll be working with demographic data and other sample data sets.
