Data is the new currency of business. Starting from Google’s harvesting of search engine information and trickling down to small businesses tracking their sales, that data is analyzed to understand where a business stands and, more importantly, where it’s headed. Data science has become a discipline in its own right, with the goal of turning raw data into something intelligible to non-data scientists. One of the best ways to do that is to use Tableau, data visualization software that can turn data into diagrams and charts that are both aesthetically pleasing and highly informative. Tableau is easy to grasp and can be used productively by data scientists and non-data scientists alike; it is the tool that makes data worth the effort of acquiring it.
Tableau experience alone won’t launch you on a new career, but it is a highly practical skill to include on a resume. It can be useful in many careers, but perhaps the most obvious role for Tableau users is Data Analyst—the professionals who wrangle, sort, and process data. All that work ends up in reports, and Tableau is an excellent way to make those reports informative and visually engaging. Data scientists and engineers, who are involved in other aspects of data management, can also benefit from knowledge of Tableau.
In London, data analysts are paid about £40,000 per year. Data scientists earn an average annual salary of approximately £60,000, while data engineers take home closer to £64,000 a year.
If you are looking for a school that teaches live Tableau classes in London, you’ll find a one-day introduction—Design Your Data—offered by General Assembly at their Tower Hamlets location. New Horizons, located in Bayswater, offers a pair of more in-depth beginner and intermediate classes in the software. In both schools, instruction takes place in a traditional classroom, with students and teachers in the same location at the same time.
Instead of commuting to a school and dealing with classroom distractions, consider an online class that allows you to learn from the comfort of your own home. Virtual instruction still operates in real time—you can ask questions or share your screen with the instructor if you encounter difficulties.
Noble Desktop, the creator of this tool, offers a variety of Tableau classes. These include a ||CPN848|| that runs for 12 hours and covers all the essentials of this powerful software. Noble also offers a Tableau Level 1 class that runs for one day and may well suffice for people who don’t require in-depth knowledge of the software. Both classes are taught by NYIM Training, an affiliate of Noble Desktop.
NYIM Training offers additional live online Tableau courses. You might also be interested in virtual Tableau classes provided by NYC Career Centers.
