Learn · The Data Studio track

Data Studio, in three levels

Formerly Looker Studio — Google renamed it; the course names both.

Each level ends with something you built and a record that links to it. You can stop after any one of them, and what you earned still stands on its own.

Finish all three

Completing all three levels earns the Alongrail Certificate in Data Studio: three levels, three reports, each one built on your own. Like every record, it’s private until you publish it.

Awarded for three completed levels and the three projects linked above.

Each level also earns its own record as you finish it. The certificate comes when all three are complete — Practitioner and Professional are in development.

The record is a description of work you did, not a claim about you. The certificate is the same, three times over. It’s issued the moment your last level record exists, private until you publish it, and yours to unpublish.
