About This Program
This program bridges the gap between raw data and business insight using Microsoft Power BI. Participants will learn to connect to diverse data sources, build clean data models using star and snowflake schemas, write DAX measures from foundational to finance-grade complexity, and design dashboards that communicate clearly to executives and stakeholders. Developers will go deeper into Power Query (M language), row-level security, deployment pipelines, and embedding reports in web applications. All labs use realistic datasets drawn from HR analytics, sales performance, and financial reporting — the same contexts where Power BI delivers the most business value. Graduates leave certified and ready to own the BI layer in any data team.
Prerequisites
Basic understanding of relational databases and tabular data Familiarity with Excel or SQL is an advantage No prior Power BI experience required for the Beginner level
