Testimonials

“The content was great for an introduction to Tableau. I truly appreciate the way Michael was able to explain everything, and would recommend this class to anyone needing to get their feet wet with Tableau.”

- Shianne DeGeorge, Business Intelligence Group, Kaiser Permanente

Thoroughly enjoyed the training. The trainer was fantastic! It is rare but always an awesome experience when a trainer is also an experienced practioner with a breadth of knowledge and hands on experience… even well beyond the subject matter at hand. I had the feeling that the trainer could have answered in detail any question we might have had related to not only BDM but Hadoop and other relevant big data topics as well. Time well spent and I hope to encounter Tomi again.

“Our Informatica Axon and Enterprise Data Catalog training classes were all excellent for our needs.  The trainer really knew a lot about data governance strategy, frameworks, stewardship and actual implementation. As a senior consultant, he had implemented many projects, this really helped in Q&A. Highly recommended.”
