How to get Tableau for class and license key
UPDATE:
You may use Tableau Desktop version 10.x, with no adverse effect (as far as the professors can tell) on assignments. I have updated the instructions below to reflect we’ll be using version 10.
————-
We’ll be using Tableau Desktop version 9.3.5 10.x a lot during this course. You’ll need your own individual license key (previously, students shared a bulk key, but typically would run out or run into issues). You can get a full copy of the Tableau software – PC or Mac – for free!
To request a free copy of the software:
- Go to the landing page and click the “Get Tableau for Free” button.
- Fill out the form and make sure that you use your temple.edu email address.
- They should contact you within a few days with more information on how to download the software.
Tableau’s site has a series of quick start guides and video-based training. If you want to do something that we don’t cover in class, check there.
