About the Course

Looker Studio represents a paradigm shift in how we communicate marketing performance and business intelligence.

Whether you're an analyst looking to automate your weekly reporting or a marketer needing a clearer view of your KPIs, this course provides a hands-on, practical approach to mastering the platform. We'll move beyond basic charts to building robust, interactive dashboards that answer real business questions at a glance.
