Tableau offers an Academic Program for students and educators that provides access to Tableau Desktop and Tableau Server for teaching and learning purposes. This program is designed to help students and teachers incorporate data visualization and analytics into their coursework and research. Here are some key points about the Tableau Academic Program for students:

Eligibility: The Academic Program is available to full-time or part-time students currently enrolled in an accredited academic institution, such as a university, college, or K-12 school. Educators and instructors can also participate in the program to use Tableau in their teaching activities.

Free Tableau Desktop License: As part of the program, eligible students can get a free one-year license for Tableau Desktop, the primary data visualization tool offered by Tableau. With Tableau Desktop, students can connect to various data sources, create interactive dashboards, and perform data analysis and visualization.

Free Tableau Server License: The Academic Program may also include access to Tableau Server, which allows students and instructors to share and collaborate on Tableau workbooks and dashboards in a secure and centralized environment.

Educational Resources: Tableau provides educational resources, tutorials, and sample datasets to help students and educators learn how to use Tableau effectively for data analysis and visualization. These resources are available on the Tableau website and may include webinars, training videos, and documentation.

Non-Commercial Use Only: The Tableau licenses provided through the Academic Program are strictly for non-commercial use, meaning they cannot be used for any commercial or for-profit activities.

Renewal and Verification: The Tableau Desktop license provided to students is typically valid for one year. After the initial period, students can apply for a renewal if they are still eligible. Tableau may require verification of student status, such as providing proof of enrollment, to continue using the free licenses.
