About this Workshop
Mastering Business Intelligence with Power BI
Objective
To equip participants with a complete, end-to-end mastery of the Microsoft Power BI ecosystem. By mirroring the real-world Business Intelligence workflow, learners will move from connecting to raw data sources to engineering robust Star Schema data models, writing complex DAX calculations, and designing AI-enhanced, interactive reports. The ultimate goal is to transform learners into self-sufficient analysts capable of automating data preparation and publishing secure, actionable insights for enterprise decision-making.
Why It Matters
From chaos to clarity: This course teaches the ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process, allowing you to turn messy folders of CSVs and Excel sheets into a clean, automated "Single Source of Truth."
The end of manual reporting: By mastering Power Query (The "Kitchen"), you stop manually cleaning data every month. You build the logic once, and the reports update automatically forever.
Modeling is the Backbone: Pretty charts built on bad data lead to bad decisions. We emphasize Data Modeling and Star Schemas (Fact vs. Dimension) to ensure your analysis is accurate, scalable, and performant—something most beginners overlook.
The "Why" Behind the "What": DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) allows you to ask deep questions; like "Year-over-Year Growth" or "Customer Retention Rates"; that drive actual business strategy.
Storytelling, Not Just Reporting: Data is only valuable if it is understood. We move beyond basic bar charts to teach Data Storytelling and UI/UX design, ensuring your dashboards are intuitive, accessible, and persuasive for executive stakeholders.
Prerequisites
Operating System: A computer running Windows 10 or 11 (Power BI Desktop is not natively supported on Mac/Linux).
Software: Microsoft Power BI Desktop (Free download) installed.
Data Literacy: A basic understanding of data concepts (e.g., what a table, row, and column are) and familiarity with Microsoft Excel (specifically Pivot Tables and basic formulas like SUM/IF) is highly recommended.
Account Requirements: A work or school email address is required to sign up for the Power BI Service to fully participate in Module 6 (Publishing & Security). Personal emails (Gmail/Outlook) have limitations for the Service component.
