Course description
Power BI – Getting Started with Power BI is a foundational course designed to introduce learners to Microsoft’s powerful business intelligence platform. This course focuses primarily on Power BI Desktop, the downloadable application used to create compelling data visualizations and reports. Learners will also explore the Power BI Service, Microsoft's cloud-based platform for sharing and collaborating on dashboards and reports. Participants will gain familiarity with the Power BI ecosystem, including its various components such as dashboards, reports, pages, and workspaces. The course begins by demystifying the different Power BI products and clarifying the roles of the Desktop app and the Web Service. Learners will be guided through the installation process, interface navigation, and the distinctions between building in the Desktop app versus the Service. Key concepts such as semantic models, data views, report views, and model views are introduced, helping learners understand how to structure and manage data effectively. By the end of the course, learners will be comfortable navigating both the Desktop and Web interfaces, uploading and managing PBIX files, and understanding the foundational elements of data modeling and visualization. Whether you're a business analyst, project manager, or someone new to data analytics, this course provides the essential skills to begin your Power BI journey with confidence and clarity.
