Google Data Studio for Beginners
Google Data Studio is not the most difficult tool to use. But it packs a LOT of features and requires quite a lot of efforts to handle when you start. With our tailored courses, we show you how the solution works, how to get started, how to connect it to the data sources that interest you, how to make it pretty and how to build a custom dashboard that works well and makes your data speak.

Advanced Google Data Studio Courses
You can do a lot with Data Studio. From data blending to custom fields, without forgetting data preparation outside of the tool, our custom courses can cover many things. But not all the features will truly be useful to you. We can discuss what you aim at achieving and build a Data Studio training that helps you achieve those goals. What our Data Studio advanced trainings can include:
- Advanced data visualization techniques
- Data blending between different data sources
- Custom fields
- Review of important functions such as CASE
- Data preparation techniques with BigQuery and/or Google Sheets
Google Data Studio for Specific Data Sources
Google Data Studio can connect natively with pretty much all Google solutions (including Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google Ads, Google Sheets, BigQuery…). But it can pull data from virtually any other data source. If you want to learn how to use Data Studio with a data source in particular, we can build a custom training that will get you there. What our trainings of that type can include:
- Introduction to Supermetrics
- Introduction to other connectors
- Use of Google Sheets or BigQuery as a data bridge
- Creation of a custom data connector
- How to use the data available from a specific connector
Why Should You Be Trained by Pragm for Data Studio?
We have been using and teaching Google Data Studio / Looker Studio since the tool was launched. We know it well and really like it, to build very simple and effective dashboards, but also beautiful and heavy, detailed reports. Moreover, we specialize in data storytelling and visualization, always making sure we apply the best practices in the matter. We love to transmit that knowledge to our students.

FAQ
Why should I choose one of your Data Studio courses instead of an online tutorial or course?
Free or paid online courses and tutorials are great. They however lack the customization and don’t provide the ability to interact with a teacher. They also don’t allow you to learn using your own data, a factor which can really be useful to better master Data Studio.
Can your Data Studio trainings be grant-funded?
Yes, for Canadian companies or non profits. Pragm is based in Quebec.
Will your training take place online?
Yes, we prefer online trainings because they allow us to provide you the recordings, and to better interact with our and your screens while using Data Studio. On demand, we can however provide on site training.
Which Data Studio course is best for me?
Before offering any custom training, we always ask you to explain to us what you are looking for and what is your current understanding and expertise with Data Studio. It really helps us provide the best course for your needs.
How long are your Data Studio courses?
We really recommend not to have teaching sessions longer than 3 hours. But the duration of a full training entirely depends on how many topics you want to tackle.
Will you show us how Data Studio works?
Yes, all our trainings include demonstrations.
What will I learn during your courses?
We always make sure that you understand how Data Studio works, how to build dashboards with various data sources and how to customize them. Your training is tailored to your needs, so what you will learn depends on what you want to master.
Will you guide us on how to build and set up a Data Studio dashboard?
We always advise to include exercises based on models. We can even build together, at least in part, the dashboard you need. But it all depends on what you want! All our courses are tailored to what you want to learn.
