Fundamentals of Power BI
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Power BI is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through pivot table analysis and visual encoding choices without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with report automation, data governance and spreadsheet controls in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where report automation is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against established visualisation principles
- Review data governance and say plainly whether it is working
- Bring spreadsheet controls into line with current good practice
- Make a decision about KPI definition without waiting for a specialist
