Course description
Power BI – Filters, Formatting & Analytics is a practical course designed to help learners enhance the clarity, usability, and analytical power of their Power BI reports. This course focuses on applying filters and slicers, using conditional formatting, and leveraging built-in analytics tools to guide users toward meaningful insights. Learners begin by exploring filters and slicers, understanding how each tool operates and when to use them. The course demonstrates how to apply filters at the visual, page, and report levels, and how slicers can be formatted for intuitive user interaction. These tools allow users to control data visibility and tailor reports to specific audiences or analytical needs. Next, learners dive into conditional formatting, using data bars, icon sets, and color rules to highlight trends and outliers. The course emphasizes accessibility and best practices for visual clarity, ensuring that formatting choices support rather than distract from the data. Finally, learners explore Power BI’s analytics pane, adding reference lines such as averages, medians, constants, and maximums to visuals. These elements provide context and help users interpret data more effectively, whether in digital dashboards or printed reports. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to build visually refined, interactive reports that guide users through data with clarity and purpose.
