Course description

Power BI – Exploring New Chart Types is an intermediate-level course designed to expand learners’ visualization capabilities by introducing a variety of advanced and emerging chart types. While foundational visuals like bar and line charts are essential, this course focuses on more dynamic and insightful visualizations that help users uncover patterns, relationships, and geographic trends in their data. Learners begin by building donut charts, which offer a cleaner alternative to pie charts and allow for layered data representation. The course then introduces treemaps, which display hierarchical data using nested rectangles, making it easier to compare proportions across categories. Participants will also explore filled maps, which use color shading to represent data across geographic regions, and learn how to enhance these maps with tooltips and legends for even deeper insight. Additionally, learners will work with stacked and clustered column charts enhanced with line overlays, enabling comparative analysis between multiple metrics. Throughout the course, learners will gain understanding of the procedure for configuring visuals, adjusting formatting, and optimizing layout for dashboards and mobile-friendly reports. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to choose and implement the right chart types for their analytical needs, improving the clarity and impact of their Power BI reports.
