Tableau Software announced that it has renewed its agreement with the Government Technology Agency of Singapore (GovTech) to train and deepen public officers' capabilities in data analytics and visualisation. The Memorandum of Intent (MOI), signed on 7 July 2020, will empower more public officers to understand and make use of data, transform the public sector's operations with data-driven decisions and accelerate the country's digitalisation movement, in line with the country's Smart Nation initiative.Tableau has been working with GovTech since 2017 to upskill public officers and deepen visual analytics capabilities within the public service. To-date, thousands of public officers have been trained with visual analytics skills through Tableau. Under the new agreement, Tableau and GovTech will engage in knowledge sharing of resources, industry best practices and tools to continue strengthening the abilities of public officers within the government. Public agencies will also have access to updated Tableau content, learning resources and subject matter experts. This builds on Tableau's existing efforts to support the government's push for digital transformation. As part of the ongoing partnership, Tableau organises Communities of Practice for analytics leaders in the government, where directors and program leads discuss and share best practices and their vision for data analytics. Tableau also actively shares content assets to build the public sector's knowledge base. In addition, Tableau has been a key partner of GovTech's annual Data Arcade Tournament (DAT). This marquee event - a public sector visual analytics competition - connects data science enthusiasts and practitioners from across the government, to showcase the importance of visual analytics and encourage more effective use of data in their work. To train public officers' data science capabilities, Tableau has conducted workshops to help them better understand their data via interactive visualisation tools and uncover deeper insights. At DAT 2019, the number of teams who participated using Tableau almost doubled to over 100. Officers were able to put the skills learned to the test in a Live Hackathon, with the team from Land Transport Authority eventually winning in the Tableau track. Tableau continues to demonstrate its long-standing commitment to the public sector, in helping to further the government's goal of creating a competent workforce equipped and skilled in data analytics. Tableau's annual Public Sector Day sees hundreds of public officers attend for a day of thought leadership and sharing, where passionate industry practitioners and partners, including GovTech, share their journeys in building a data-driven organisation and engage in knowledge exchange with Tableau.
