Trainer is very enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and put in the effort to craft an example visualisation that was suited to our group. However, I think some of his other examples were lost on us when it comes to other data related things that were not directly related to Tableau. (Posted on 10/11/2022)1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment - Dr Alvin shared a lot of useful knowledge regarding Tableau which is hard to find in other places e.g. YouTube. Review by Course Participant/Trainee

Attended the course with zero knowledge about Tableau but after attending the course, I was able to gain a good understanding of how to use Tableau when given the right data set.
In order not to miss out things that Dr Alvin shared, i would like to suggest to have designated timing for break (on top of the OTOT break that he has no issue with) as it is challenging to go for break as we are afraid of missing out / unable to catch up on the examples.
Dr Alvin was able to engage the whole class meaningfully throughout the 2 days course. Recommended for anyone who is new to Tableau and looking for a entry point to learn Tableau (Posted on 10/11/2022)
