Data Visualisation and Storytelling with Tableau

Reports full of dense tables rarely change decisions inside busy African organisations. This course teaches analysts and managers to turn operational and financial data into clear, persuasive Tableau dashboards that leaders actually use. Participants build interactive views from local datasets such as sales, service and public sector performance figures, and learn to frame the story behind the numbers.
