Welcome to MIMU Basic Tableau Training. This course will serve as a beginner-oriented introductory course on using Tableau  software (specifically, Desktop Version 2021.4). As one of the most powerful and fastest data visualization software, Tableau allows users to easily perform tasks such as comparing, sorting, analysing and sharing information and insights. This course covers basic topics such as preparing data for use in the software, creating a map at different administrative levels, drawing charts/heat maps/highlighted tables, developing a dashboard with search functionality and hyperlinks, and updating/changing data sources.

On this page you will find course materials – videos, handouts and exercises - developed by MIMU for our Basic Tableau Training. We would like to thank Tableau for their generous contribution over the period November 2019 to November 2023 which has allowed MIMU to develop our own skills and to share this knowledge with others working in humanitarian, development and peace-related sectors.  Your feedback on how you find the course and especially on how they have helped your work will greatly help us to improve our courses. the MIMU Training Feedback Form.
