Our take
Based on the ratings of 18,366 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in February 2025. No course pays to be reviewed.
Kirill Eremenko's follow-up to his Tableau A-Z course is a short, topic-by-topic add-on for people who already build basic charts. It runs about 9.8 hours across 72 lectures, split into modules on groups and sets, table calculations, data prep and analytics, animations, level of detail calculations and mapping. The listing says each module stands alone, so you can jump to the one you need. The A-Z course is named as a prerequisite, and it matters.
Reviewers like the teaching. They describe explanations that are clear, detailed and paced comfortably, and one says it beat other courses they had tried. One singles out the animations section, and another, who came back after seven years, says the tactics still hold up. The complaints are small. One student wants challenges to try alone and then compare against an answer, and the course has only five quizzes and no assignments. Another had already covered some material in a class. The one 1-star review is about the player asking for feedback instead of starting the next lecture.
Of 18,366 ratings, about 11,500 are five stars and another 5,600 are four stars, with under 220 at one or two stars. The course was last updated in February 2025, which is recent enough. Next to the exam-prep courses in the Tableau list, this one is about getting better at the work, not passing a certification. Anyone chasing a certificate should look at those instead. If you have the basics, it is an easy yes.
Pros
- Table calculations get the longest module, about 2.5 hours, with step-by-step explanations
- Reviewers call the explanations clear and detailed, with a pace that feels comfortable
- Modules are independent, so you can jump straight to LOD, sets or mapping
- Animations section draws praise from a reviewer who plans to use it in a dashboard
Cons
- The Tableau A-Z course is a stated prerequisite, so true beginners will struggle
- Only five quizzes and no assignments, and one reviewer wants challenges to attempt alone
- Under ten hours total, so each topic gets a short module, not a deep dive
Kirill explained everything so clearly that it was easy to grasp each concept. I wish I had taken the beginner level with him instead of the ones I did.
Labeled intermediate, but it assumes solid beginner Tableau skills and the A-Z course first.

This is an incredible course. I am so happy to have purchased it as I have understood concepts that were very difficult for me like table calculations, blending and different types of filters. I can see the huge effort Kirill has put into preparing a course that covers the most advance topics in Tableau. I have learnt a lot on every one of the sections, and I think the most challenging ones for me have been Section 3 (Coal Terminal) and Section 4 (Retail Industry). As an Engineer I was just using Excel to analyse data, but I will use what I have learnt to improve on my data reporting skills. Thanks so much again for this amazing course!
By Natarajan Ramakrishnan on 10/26/2020
The Course Overall was good. As usual Kirill's explanation on the concepts was fabulous.. Could have been explained little slower on certain important concepts. Could have been splitted still into multiple sections rather than running a section for long duration. Apart from Kirill using the other lecturer for last section like it was used in basic course is not at all a good option as it reduces the clarity and pace of the course. On a whole good course!!
By Senthilkumar Chandrasekaran on 4/22/2020
This course is for advanced users. Basic users to either opt for Krill's basic course in Tableau or play with Tableau and understand how it works before starting this. This course is covered with all critical aspects of Tableau through 5 projects. There are many things to be digested at the end. Practise while taking the course and practise after completing this to recollect. Overall this course is very good.
By Aleksandar Nedeljkovic on 2/27/2019
This course is awesome. After finishing the basic course of Tableau made by the same educator, with this one I was learning a lot of stuff, very useful things, techniques, tricks, and, what is most important, with this course I found out how to think different when working with Data. Thank you, Kirill, a lot for this amazing course. Going to learn more from you with the aim to become among the best worlds' Data Scientist
By Nguyen The Danh Nguyen on 7/10/2018
I have a background in Accounting and is looking for another career. I found Tableau as a leader in Data visualization software and loving analysis from there and I found this course by Kirill. It's really amazing and I love the way Kirill is inspiring his students by the word "Happy analyzing" at the end of each tutorial. :D I quickly get a job as a junior business intelligence analyst in retail industry in Vietnam. The demand of Data Analyst is really high in the world now and my country has too so your course is a door for me to enter the data science. I'm eager to learn and work in Data Science by your courses. Thank you !
By Sai Kumar Aatipamula on 4/15/2018
Overall the course curriculum for the beginners who wants to learn the Tableau tool with insights on how to leverage each option and get max advantage. Instructor gives an very detailed reference of topics, it is up-to us to understand why and for what purpose the options are being and how to implement them in different ways. Thank You for structuring such a marvelous course for us all.
By Zulfikar Ali on 1/24/2018
Kirill is such a great instructor. I have taken both the courses (beginner and advanced). Overall it's more than enough to cover these two courses to become an expert in tableau. However, the reason why I didn't give 5 stars is, in these courses we have only worked with .xls and .csv files. The advanced course should have included working with "customized sql commands", mysql/postgreSQL/oracle, sap hana, etc.... Working with different sources of data is something which is very important for the data scientists.
By Carlos Mata on 12/24/2017
This course is a good compliment to the initial Tableau Course done by Kiril. It is what you expect....get deeper into the subject and execute accordingly. Since this is an advanced course, I would suggest other students to use this as a guide with other external educational materials since the topics are advanced (like the LOD explanations & formulas). Kiril does a great job teeing it up but to help further understand the concepts I had to dig deeper and find it. This helps with practical learning anyway where googling and youtubing is needed when stuck. I am a fan of this dude and his style and looking forward to future courses. Check out the animation section...real cool.
By Siddhartha Singh on 7/16/2017
Kirill has developed his courses with lot of passion and Data Sets are interesting too. I had a lot of fun going through the course. A big thumbs up for the great course! I went through both basic and advance course and simply loved it. The only thing I feel is missing ( that's why 4 stars) in the course is the Admin part of Tableau which would have given the course even more completeness.
By Rakshith Govindarajulu on 3/28/2017
Exhaustive, extensive and a really good course on Tableau. You need to do the Beginner Level to move to the advance level. Kiril is as usual really amazing. I did a few courses on 'Coursera' , in which the teachers talk a lot!. But here, Kiril dives straight to the point, helping me grasp really fast. You will need about 50 hours to complete this course. I spent 3 entire weekends on this course. But at the end, I feel like a Tableau rockstar. Totally worth the money and effort Ive put in. Special thanks to Kiril and Super Data Science team for this wonderful course. Highly recommendable course. Don't think so much. Just purchase this course and hit the ground running. Feedback: Please have some summary notes that we can refer in the future. Also please give some mini-capstone so that we can apply your techniques. But still 5 stars for the amazing techniques and delivery.
