Tableau Training is a great way to get your team up to speed with essential design skills. However, cross-functional teams, or individuals of varying skill levels will likely benefit from more specialized coaching to put the skills they have learned into practice.
Our Tableau Post-Training Support program is an add-on option that enables our instructors to stay involved with learners post-training, and to coach them in best practices for success in their specific areas. For example, some learners may need help with more complex calculations, more advanced chart types, or may be looking for recommendations on the best way to approach a specific reporting/visualization challenge that they are facing. Our team can give them personalized guidance to set them on the right course for long-term success.
You’ve already made a great learning investment in your team. Now it’s time to make it stick!

Although you can opt for any amount of support, most clients sign up for a block of 20+ hours. We will provide 1 talented trainer or Tableau specialist dedicated to your account who will interact directly with your team members via your preferred mode of communication such as phone/video conference or email.
