By the end of this Specialization, you’ll be able to:
Build LookML views, dimensions, measures, joins, Explores, and derived tables
Create and deliver Looker dashboards, Looks, alerts, and scheduled reports
Use filters, Liquid, datagroups, and caching to improve analytics workflows
Troubleshoot LookML projects with SQL Runner, validators, and Explore errors
You’ll begin with data exploration and dashboard delivery in Looker, then move into LookML development, derived tables, caching, usability, and troubleshooting. This Specialization is designed for learners who want to support analytics teams with governed data models and business-ready dashboards.
Applied Learning Project
You’ll complete hands-on Looker and LookML labs that build from data exploration to model development and dashboard delivery. Early projects focus on exploring and visualizing data with dimensions, measures, filters, pivots, table calculations, Looks, and dashboards. You’ll also practice sending dashboards, creating tile-based alerts, and using Looker content to share insights. Later projects focus on LookML development, including views, dimensions, measures, joins, Explores, SQL derived tables, native derived tables, dynamic SQL derived tables with Liquid, caching policies, datagroups, usability best practices, and troubleshooting with SQL Runner and validators.
