Welcome to ONLC Training Centers

Tableau Certifications & Training Classes

If there’s one thing companies aren’t short on, it’s data. Data is everywhere—on-site, in the cloud, and all points in between. With ONLC’s Tableau® live, online instructor-led, or self-study On-Demand courses, all that information goes from several disparate points to focused pieces of business intelligence (BI).

Tableau offers a fast and easy way to visualize data from multiple formats and sources. Tableau builds data sets by integrating with CSV, Excel, SharePoint, Active Directory, web services, APIs, and cloud solutions. This helps companies gain meaningful insights from their data so they can make better decisions. The sheer volume and applicability of data makes responsibly collecting it and analyzing it highly essential.

ONLC’s Tableau training courses take students through the basics of Tableau’s interactive software on up through advanced skills. Under the tutelage of experienced instructors and following a curriculum built toward certification, our instructor-led Tableau courses will provide students with the blueprint for compiling, assessing, and acting upon BI insights at their disposal.

See Tableau training certification courses below or contact an ONLC Advisor via chat or 1-800-288-8221 (weekdays) for education guidance.

ONLC offers Tableau training in multiple formats so you can pick the experience that’s best for your learning needs, schedule, educational budget and desired outcome. Hands-on training that's led by an experienced Tableau instructor is generally the most effective and efficient way to learn.

Tableau Certification

Tableau users need a base level knowledge of Windows and Excel, and having some experience using the latter’s Pivot Tables feature is a plus. With that information as a foundation, Tableau enables students to round their BI knowledge into form. You can prep for the following certifications with training from ONLC:

TABLEAU DESKTOP SPECIALIST CERTIFICATION

Tableau Desktop Specialist Certification

This entry-level certification is focused on foundational functionality and product comprehension, and can be a good starting point before moving to higher-level Tableau certifications.

Our Introduction for Novice Users course, as stated by its title, is for those new to Tableau. Certificate program candidates who have been using Tableau for at least one month and have experience with other analytics and visualization tools such as Power BI can attend the faster-paced Experienced IT Pros class.
