Did you know there are over 60 Tableau Desktop Users at University of Illinois?
Founded by an award winning professor, brilliant computer scientist, and savvy business leader from Stanford, Tableau is all about making data analytics fast, easy, beautiful, and most importantly, useful. Helping people gain insight into their data to solve unexpected problems and challenges is what drives us.
Join us for a Tableau Day at UIUC on December 11th to learn how Tableau is helping students, faculty, and staff gain insight to their data. See the latest version, Tableau 8.2, which includes a Mac OS for desktop, Story Points for telling data narratives and much more. Connect with Tableau users, share best practices, and learn new approaches to working with data. Lunch will be provided.
Note: You are encouraged and invited to attend both morning and afternoon sessions, regardless of whether you are a current Tableau user or not. Please register if you plan to attend either.
