Tableau Data Analysis Bootcamp: Master Data Visualization
It’s been a while. I know I’ve been slow in creating courses (considering a global pandemic and all)- but after a few months, I’m ready to release my new course!
Many of you have suggested that I stick to the format of “leaning by doing”. I’ve structured this course into 6 case studies where we analyse the data and create visualisations. The dashboards created are practical and functional. These are dashboards which will be very useful in your career as a data analyst. The data sets and icons are below.
So let’s get to it!
Park City Peaks Hotel
Park City Peaks Hotel provides hotel accommodation to tourists and business travellers. At the moment, the hotel manager can gets an excel spreadsheet that he downloads from the Hotel Booking system.
He has given us the spreadsheet and would like to see the following:
Bookings and Cancellations the hotel gets in a monthly basis
Repeated Guests statistics
The food option guests generally chooses
Do they get singular travellers or family bookings on average?

How are the reviews by division
Do people recommend their products?
Do reviews mention anything about returning items?
She will also like the option to investigate bad reviews. The excel sheet is provided.
