Tableau Conference 2020 Guide (aka Tableau Conferenceish)

It's virtual this year, so here's how the TC20 Conferenceish platform actually works and how to get the most out of it.

Part ofTableau Conference 2020
  • You need a Tableau login to access the full TC20 Conferenceish site at tc20.tableau.com, and content is broadcast across four channels based on your chosen time zone.
  • Colour coding identifies content tracks: yellow is Data for All keynotes, red is the Tableau community track, another colour is the partner track, and there is a 'What's New in Tableau' track for upcoming features.
  • Brain dates are the most valuable networking feature; propose multiple time slots across morning, lunch and afternoon to give people flexibility, and favour group sessions for richer discussion.
  • Tableau Doctor sessions let you book a focused appointment with an expert or Zen Master to dig into a specific problem, with more topic and time control than in-person conference.
  • The virtual Tableau Public viz gallery showcases the Iron Viz feeder winners; studying how each viz was built is a strong way to learn Tableau, and you can only vote on Iron Viz live in the American time zone.
