    This course helped me find my footing with Tableau and I enjoyed the attention to detail in each module. I would highly recommend "Tableau Fundamentals" for any beginner.

    It has its faults and bugs, but it gives you a really good foundation for learning Tableau from scratch. I feel like some of the courses could be ordered differently, however.

    This was great :) I really liked the interactive workbooks. I would prefer longer videos. Possibly with the teacher doing more examples

    Courses are well-structured, although a walk-through video after each summarizing the key points and what it has achieved could help memory retention!
