Overview
Power BI is part of the suite of tools from Microsoft which enable data to be analysed and visualised from a variety of sources.
With Power BI Desktop, you get a report authoring tool that enables you to connect to and query data from different sources using the Query Editor. From the datasets you can add visuals and create interactive reports.
In this half day taster session, attendees will learn how to connect Excel workbooks to Microsoft Power BI Desktop. You will carry out basic data modelling in the data using the Query Editor and then add visuals to a report.
Please note that this course is not suitable for new Excel users.

For customers attending remotely via Virtual Classroom or ‘Attend From Anywhere’, an additional screen is required for this course to work through remote desktop labs and view training information.
For learners without access to the software required for this event, a remote PC can be provided using GoToMyPC. If you have any questions, contact our Virtual team.
If you need training for 3 or more people, you should ask us about onsite training. Putting aside the obvious location benefit, content can be customised to better meet your business objectives and more can be covered than in a public classroom. Its a cost effective option. One on one training can be delivered too, at reasonable rates.
Submit an enquiry from any page on this site and let us know you are interested in the requirements box, or simply mention it when we contact you.
