About This Learning Path

Mastering Tableau is a comprehensive learning path that takes you from first principles to advanced analytics in Tableau Desktop and Tableau Prep. You begin by connecting data, understanding the interface, and building clean, professional visualizations. From there, you’ll design effective dashboards that tell clear stories, add interactivity with filters and parameters, and apply Tableau’s calculation language to solve real business questions. As you progress, you’ll work with Level of Detail expressions, table and window functions, and advanced charts such as layered maps, waterfalls, and funnels. You’ll also learn how to clean and reshape data with Tableau Prep, connect to SQL and cloud sources, and choose between joins, blends, extracts, and live connections. The path finishes with performance optimization techniques and best practices for publishing data sources. Throughout, Kubicle’s applied, project‑based approach keeps the focus on practical outcomes-faster decisions, reliable dashboards, and analytics that scale across teams in finance, operations, sales, and beyond.
