Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to prepare before the first session?
There are a few important points that you should consider before the training: - Please fill out our Check In (first learning point). - You need stable internet connection and calm space (separate room, headphones). - Our training uses Zoom for the call itself. Please download the Desktop Client before the training: https://zoom.us/download#client_4meeting - It is good to refresh your Excel skills beforehand, but not required. - Previous knowledge of Tableau is required. Please have a look at our Level 1.0 training for topics that should be familiar to you before joining.
What to expect?
REAL TIME SESSIONS Our training uses Zoom meetings to connect participants and the trainer. All participants will introduce themselves, can ask questions and share their screen during the real time session. Materials will be ready to download from the course page 24h before the training starts. The 3 h session has one short break (10-15min) to refill on coffee :).
SELF STUDY After each real time session you will receive an assignment that takes 1h to complete. You work on your own and submit results via course page.
Q&A Every week you can join an optional Q&A and ask questions about the assignment, your own data or training topics.
AFTER THE PROGRAM This is not the end! For 12 weeks we release a new InFocus Video with tips and best practices in Tableau. Additionally you will still have access to our Q&A weekly sessions where you can turn to with your pending questions.
