Program Professional Framework

Analyzing and Visualizing Data with Power BI

Program Overview

Many teams still assemble monthly reports by copying data between spreadsheets. This programme follows the complete Power BI workflow that replaces that effort: connecting to and shaping data in Power Query, building a star-schema data model, writing core DAX measures, designing interactive report pages, and publishing and sharing content securely in the Power BI service. Participants work on a realistic operational dataset and finish with a report that refreshes automatically and answers defined business questions.

Learning Outcomes

✓Import and clean data from Excel, CSV and database sources using Power Query transformations.
✓Design a star-schema model with fact and dimension tables, a date table and correct relationships.
✓Write DAX measures for totals, ratios, year-to-date and prior-period comparisons.
✓Build report pages with slicers, drill-down, drillthrough and tooltips that answer specific business questions.
✓Publish a report to a workspace, schedule refresh and apply row-level security for different user groups.
