Overview of this book

The Tableau Desktop Specialist certification is fundamental for any data visualization professional who works in the field with Tableau. This book gets you started by covering the exam format, Tableau basics, and best practices for preparing data for analysis and visualization. It also builds on your knowledge of advanced Tableau topics to get you up to speed with the essential domains and domain objectives. Although the guide provides an outline and starting point to key in on what needs to be understood before the examination, it also delivers in context to give you a strong understanding of each piece before taking the exam. Instructions on how to get hands on with examples, a common data source, and suggested elements are also included. Understanding the concepts will not only assist you in passing the examination, but will also help you work effectively with the tool in your workspace. By the end of this book, you'll be able to efficiently prepare for the certification exam with the help of mock tests, detailed explanations, and expert advice from the author.

Technical requirements

In this chapter, you will need the following to apply hands-on learning:

  • A Tableau Desktop application: Most versions will work with the exam, but for best results, use 2021.1 or later. The location of the current download is https://www.tableau.com/products/desktop/download. This version is not free but allows for a 2-week trial. In earlier chapters, the Tableau Public Application would work, but not in this case.

Note

The Tableau Public Application will not be useful for learning about these concepts, as data stored on Tableau Public is automatically extracted.
