👋 Meet a Community Member 👋

James Emery (Georgia Institute of Technology)

Meet HETUG co-lead and Tableau Ambassador, James Emery. James will share a little of what it's like to help out the masses on Tableau Forums while still supporting a local Tableau user base within the Scheller College of Business at Georgia Tech.


💡 Tips & Tricks: Prep Queen Reigns Again! 💡

Jen Snyder (Salve Regina University)

As we PIVOT into the new academic year, Jen Snyder's back again to show us some ways to wield the power of pivots to simplify your Prep flows.


🎤 Unlocking Institutional Insights with Data Scaffolding Techniques 🎤

Yan Li (College of DuPage)

Incomplete or poorly structured data can make using and understanding that data challenging. That's where data scaffolding comes in! Yan will share some Institutional Research use cases that show how scaffolding techniques fill data gaps, restructure datasets for clarity, and improve access to data.


💬 Wrap-up and Chat 💬

We'll close out the meeting with info about our next HETUG meeting, and then open up breakout rooms to chat! (Chat may extend past 4:30pm Eastern.)
