Testimonials

“Tomi was great. He was very detailed and made sure I fully understood the section before moving on. There are so many functions, so the Informatica materials and lab books are super helpful.”

“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.”

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.
