Five Roads Diverged at Inspire and You Took the One You Wanted

There’s a specially suited place to learn about analytics for everyone at Inspire—including YOU! With five tracks in all, we know that you may feel like there are endless choices to make. So, let’s walk through a little bit of what you can expect from each track, be it a golden brick road or some kind of magic carpet ride.

 

Community Track

Our NEW Community Track will infuse the spirit of your dynamic Alteryx Community. Expect to team up with fellow users and mimic familiar Community concepts like tackling weekly challenges, sharing tips and tricks, and celebrating achievements of advancing their careers, pushing the boundaries of what's possible with analytics using Alteryx, and experiencing the thrill of bringing the platform into their daily lives.

 

IT and Business Leader Track

Ready for a culture of analytics and innovation in your organization? Business leaders and IT professionals agree; it boosts the bottom line and keeps you at the forefront with a self-starting workforce. Led by speakers across industries and companies, learn to launch analytics-driven organizations with Alteryx as the core—build Centers of Excellence, get departmental adoption of analytics, and improve customer engagement through Big Data.

 

Data Analyst Track

Data analysts love Alteryx. They chase renovating every laborious process into a powerful Alteryx workflow—it’s exhilarating! Absorb knowledge from data analysts like yourself delivering game-changing insights and furthering their company and careers. Built to "inspire" you to turbocharge your skill set and explore you + Alteryx possibilities, use cases may include data blending fundamentals, jumpstarting your predictive know-how, and diving deeper into spatial analysis.

 

Tech Track

Get the lowdown on Alteryx technologies and product updates directly from the Alteryx team that developed them. Uncover more on the platform as you learn the art and (data) science of data cleansing and quality or reporting as the new output. Alteryx Technology Track will be your adventure from basic data blending to advanced topics like predictive models to production apps, and server deployment considerations.

Light Your Fire with the Right Sessions to Warm You Up

This year, you’ll notice that we’ve added handy dandy session levels to the agenda to guide you through an enlightening learning experience that matches your pace preferences! Here’s a quick reference guide for you to use as you plan out your optimal conference agenda with many amazing sessions to choose from.

 Whatever your flavor, here’s your session level cheat sheet to savor:

 

General: Unleashing the thrill inherent in solving problems using data analytics to fuel remarkable business and social outcomes is our mission. These sessions offer something for every data analytics professional with keynote speakers embodying the imaginative spirit and passion that Inspire distinctively fosters. Find your inspiration with industry leaders from the ever-evolving world of analytics.

 

Beginner: Whether you are embarking on a journey into analytics or exploring the vast canvas as a seasoned workflow builder, these sessions are an opportunity to dive right in or to refresh on Alteryx essentials. Support, spur, and speed up your understanding of the basics of data analysis and Designer interface, all while strengthening your analytics core.

 

Intermediate: If you have been steadily working with the platform for months, or know the basics but crave a chance to explore creative solutions, fuel up and focus in as these sessions target anything from macros to workflow optimization to Gallery Tips/Tricks. Boost your running knowledge and expand your drag-and-drop horizons.

 

Advanced: In case you are just entering your first foray into advanced analytics or sitting as the go-to Alteryx guru, these sessions offer discovery and fun while you push the boundaries of what users (and we!) think is possible. Crack the technical possibilities with those workflows to reflect people’s – and their own— ever changing-questions.

 

 When deciding which sessions to go to, consider which learning opportunities will provide a place for you to A. Seize the day with refresher courses B. Hang out in curriculum right in the cut of your experience C. Add a few stretchy moments to challenge yourself or maybe D. All of the above.
