Practical Data Modelling
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through spreadsheet controls and data cleaning and preparation on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: most organisations have more dashboards than decisions that depend on them, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with storytelling with data, report automation and DAX and calculated measures in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about storytelling with data without waiting for a specialist, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
- Bring report automation into line with current good practice
- Put DAX and calculated measures on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Improve data quality management within their own organisation
