The Road to Self-Service Data AnalyticsRoadshows and workshops we’ve run across the world throughout 2015 and 2016 have introduced thousands of data analysts and business leaders to the benefits of self-service data analytics. That’s why we’re excited to kick off another series of events that start this summer and continue for the rest of 2016. The Road to Self-Service Data Analytics will be a ten-country series of events designed exclusively for prospective Alteryx users who want to learn more about how self-service data analytics can empower them to simplify and automate the process for data preparation, data blending, and analysis. Attendees will learn how Alteryx can:

 

  • Connect to and cleanse data from spreadsheets, data warehouses, cloud applications, and more
  • Easily join data from multiple sources, and repeat the process on demand using new data
  • Perform predictive, statistical, and spatial analytics using an intuitive user interface, without writing code

There are two types of events in this series, and are a mix of Alteryx- and partner-led sessions. Roadshows will include a keynote by an Alteryx executive followed by a product demo, and are designed to give attendees a ton of valuable information (and a great breakfast) to get their day started off in the best possible way. We’ll show attendees how they can effectively utilize our 14-day free trial of Alteryx for their next data preparation, data blending, and advanced analytics project.

 

Workshops are often a follow-on to a prior roadshow run in a city. They run in the afternoon, and in addition to showing attendees what’s possible, they add hands-on exercises so everyone can follow along and build their first repeatable workflow in Alteryx. Attendees will need to install the free trial prior to attending the workshop, and they’ll leave with confidence having learned the basics. They can use the remaining time on their trial for their next data preparation, data blending, and analytics project.

 

The Road to Self-Service Data Analytics is coming to over 40 cities across North America, with multiple stops in some cities to make it convenient for people who live or work downtown or in the suburbs. We’ll also be holding at least 15 events across the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Australia during that same period. In some cases we’ll be running both types of events – roadshows and workshops – a few weeks apart so feel free to attend one or both. The current list of cities and dates can be found here, and additional stops will be added as we confirm venues.

 

If you're curious about what all the excitement is about around self-service analytics, and want to see how it's implemented by our market-leading platform, you should register now to reserve your seat at the table. I'll be speaking at several of these events, and I hope you'll make plans today to join me for a morning or afternoon of great educational and networking benefits that could bring immediate value to your organization, and take your career to the next level.
