This is a beginner-to-intermediate demo for Tableau Desktop. To acquire a free student, researcher, or instructor license for Tableau Desktop, please follow these licensing and installation instructions. 

Tableau Desktop is a commercial program used to create data visualizations and interactive dashboards. This tutorial assumes that you are student, instructor or researcher at the University of Toronto, and can thus request a free, renewable, one-year license for Tableau Desktop from Tableau. If you are a member of the public, please consider using Tableau Public instead, which is free.
