Power BI for Beginners
introduces you to essential tools and techniques for turning raw data into clear, interactive reports. This class goes beyond the basics and gives you hands-on experience with data transformation, modeling, and visualization.


You’ll begin by learning how to import and clean data using Power Query, removing duplicates, handling missing values, and combining data from multiple sources. You'll then explore key tools like unpivoting columns and creating custom or conditional columns to get your data into the right format for analysis.


Next, you'll focus on building data models that allow different tables to “talk” to each other using relationships. You’ll also work with DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) to create useful measures like SUMX and CALCULATE, and learn how Quick Measures can make this easier.


Once your data is ready, you'll learn how to present it with eye-catching visuals like gauges, matrix tables, and clustered columns. You’ll use filters to control what your audience sees and learn how to tell a clear story through your reports.


Finally, you’ll publish your work to the Power BI Service, where you can edit, collaborate, and share your reports online. Whether you're a student, professional, or just starting out with data, this course will help you build confidence in using Power BI to make data-driven decisions.
