Hi, college data fans!
The next time you log into your portal, you will find the newest downloadable workbook. It contains everything within our dataset which can be formatted into user-friendly tables.
This is the start menu, with links to
topical sheets.
All other pages are formatted like the one below one, which happens to be a portion from our data documentation sheet. To navigate, the user can either uses the green "Go back" button, which returns them to the start menu, or the various tabs at bottom, which allow quicker access.
New content is included as well. After all, it's nice to have a place where you can quickly identify colleges with distinct characteristics.
Brad and I have learned that, while everyone likes a cool visualization, many of our users maintain a preference for spreadsheets. And by making the most of Excel functionality, Excel sheets can do a lot of the same work as your Tableau tools. If any of you would like a quick Excel tutorial, reach out to Brad and we'll schedule one with you.
That's all for today. Next up: an enhanced version of the Snapshot tool.
Enjoy!
