Getting Started with Tableau for Data Visualization

This workshop provides a hands-on introduction to Tableau, a free tool for creating data visualizations. Its drag-and-drop interface provides tools to build a variety of visualizations with no coding required, and visualizations can be embedded in websites by copying and pasting embed code. In this workshop, participants create an interactive dashboard together along with static charts. Resources are shared to help attendees continue learning how to use this resource beyond the workshop. No prior experience is required but it is highly recommended that attendees download and install Tableau prior to the workshop: https://unc-libraries-data.github.io/Tableau/download.html This session was led by Lorin Bruckner - Data Visualization Services Librarian at UNC-Chapel Hill Libraries - on May 11, 2021.
