Syllabus

  • Analyzing Data and Reporting with Power BI
    • Analyzing data, discovering useful insights, and infusing data-driven visualizations into other apps is no longer a job reserved for dedicated data analysts. People in many job roles have access to more data and processing power than ever before. Business intelligence (BI) is the art and science of analyzing data to find insights and opportunities, and developing visual reports to showcase that information. In this lesson, you will begin analyzing data for business intelligence using self-service BI with Microsoft® Power BI®.
  • Connecting to Data
    • In any data-analysis or visualization project, the first milestone is to connect to the data sources. By creating data connections and establishing data relationships, you can develop a model for analyzing and visualizing your data.
  • Completing the Course
    • You'll wrap things up and then validate what you've learned in this course by taking an assessment.
