Looker Academy
Data Engineers, Data Analysts, Tech Lead & Management
2-4 hours per session
Get started with Looker
Modern, tidy dashboards, a text file-based workflow including GIT integration, semantic models with their own LookML templating language, very close to SQL, integrated into Google Cloud Platform and fully operable in the browser:
That's Looker! Since 2019, Google's answer to Tableau, QlikSense, Power BI & Co.
In the hands-on sessions for data engineers, we set up a Looker project together so that you can work with the tool independently after participating in the Looker Academy.
Note: This training is about the paid Looker Core/Classic, not Looker Studio (formerly Google Data Studio).
