Tableau Desktop Intermediate: HR Dashboard Development
14 HoursThis hands-on course is designed for individuals with prior Tableau experience, aiming to enhance their ability to construct precise, interactive, and clear dashboards for human resources reporting.
Attendees will engage with curated HR datasets to integrate data sources, formulate practical calculations, choose suitable visual representations, and design dashboards that facilitate the exploration of workforce insights. Special focus is placed on the consistent definition of HR metrics, the prevention of duplicate employee records, and the verification of dashboard outcomes against source data.
The session culminates in a guided project where each participant develops, verifies, and presents a prototype HR dashboard. This prototype will utilise a predefined set of metrics, such as headcount, attrition, new hires, or training engagement, as agreed upon prior to the session.
Activities will rely on synthetic HR data or approved anonymised datasets. The final selection of metrics and distribution methods will be tailored to the client’s specific reporting priorities and Tableau infrastructure.
