E - Learning — The Tableau Student Guide

As of 2020, when you sign up for your free student license, you’ll also receive a key to unlock the Desktop I and Tableau Prep modules that Tableau offers on their E-Learning Platform. These modules offer deep and comprehensive training videos, workbooks, quizzes, and practice exercises. Desktop I alone offers 107 video lessons (all on your own time). I went through the E-Learning videos over the course of a month and by the end, I had received a deeper knowledge on things like LODs, table calculations, dashboarding, filtering, aggregations, and more. Desktop I is all you need to take and pass the Specialist exam! Definitely take advantage of this incredible opportunity, which Tableau offers for free to students!

If you already have your student Desktop license, email tft@tableau.com to request your e-learning key as well.

Below is an example of some of the lessons you’ll go through with the Desktop I training.
