Will I build a portfolio?

Yes, you will build a real-world Tableau project that consists of 4 dashboards and 27 worksheets. This work is based on a custom built dataset of 300k customers, 1M transactions, 6.4M transaction line items, 3k products, and more! Also, it's exactly like what you would see being used at companies like Amazon, eBay, and more!

After building your dashboards, you can publish to Tableau public and make it part of your portfolio of work. You can also use this data to perform more practice!

How should I take this course?

First, I recommend that you take a course from the course package and simply watch it from start to finish. Don't try to do the demo work or feverishly take notes. Just watch, listen, learn, and get the 10,000ft view of what we're working on.

I've seen people try to "do" at the same time that they are trying to learn new material, and it tends to reduce understanding and applied knowledge.

Second, after you watch the course, go back a second time and perform the exercises. This time, watch the course module, pause when we get to the lesson work. Try to complete the lesson without the video. This will give you more of those "ah-ha" moments of success!  You can always click the play button if you get stuck.
