Power BI: Design & Customize Slicers

Course description

Power BI – Slicer Design & Customization is a practical course designed to help learners master the use of slicers to enhance interactivity and user control in Power BI reports and dashboards. Slicers are dynamic, visual filters that allow users to explore data by selecting specific values, categories, or ranges, making them essential tools for building intuitive and responsive reports. Learners begin by understanding what slicers are and how they differ from traditional filters. The course introduces various slicer types, including list-style and tile-style slicers, and demonstrates how to apply them to individual visuals, entire pages, or across multiple report pages. Participants will explore how slicers can be customized in terms of layout, font size, borders, shadows, and header formatting to match the design and usability needs of their dashboards. The course also covers best practices for positioning slicers, combining multiple slicers on a single page, and using slicers with calculated columns. Learners will gain experience in formatting slicers for clarity and accessibility, and preparing them for publication in the Power BI Service. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to design and implement slicers that improve report navigation, support user-driven analysis, and enhance the overall user experience. This course is ideal for Power BI users who want to build interactive, customizable dashboards.
