You'll work through the process of connecting Power BI to data sources, preparing information for analysis and creating professional reports using charts, tables, cards and interactive visuals. The course focuses on practical examples, helping you understand how Power BI can be used to explore information, identify trends and communicate findings more effectively.

Who it's for.

This course is designed for beginners who are new to Power BI, as well as professionals who work with business data and want to develop modern reporting skills. It's ideal for managers, analysts, administrators, business professionals, finance teams and anyone who needs to turn spreadsheets or other data sources into meaningful reports and dashboards.

No previous Power BI experience is required. Basic familiarity with spreadsheets and working with data is useful, but the course starts with the fundamentals and gradually builds your confidence with Power BI's reporting and visualisation tools.

What you'll learn.

You'll learn how to navigate Power BI Desktop and connect to common data sources such as Excel workbooks and CSV files. You'll explore how to import, clean and organise data, including basic data preparation techniques that help ensure your reports are accurate and consistent.

You'll then learn how to create interactive reports using bar and column charts, line charts, tables, matrices, cards, slicers and other visualisations. You'll discover how to format visuals, apply filters and create interactive report pages so users can explore information and focus on the data that matters to them.

The course will also introduce the fundamentals of relationships, calculated fields and basic DAX, helping you understand how Power BI can be used for more than simple charts. You'll learn how to structure a report, present key findings clearly and create dashboards that make business information easier to understand.

By the end of the course, you'll be able to connect Power BI to data, prepare it for analysis and create professional interactive reports. You'll have a strong foundation for progressing into more advanced Power BI features, data modelling, DAX and business intelligence techniques.

Microsoft Power BI Intermediate Course overview.

Build on your existing Power BI knowledge and develop the skills needed to create more sophisticated reports, work with larger datasets and produce meaningful business insights. This intermediate course takes you beyond basic visualisation and introduces more advanced data preparation, modelling, calculations and interactive reporting techniques.

You'll learn how to combine data from multiple sources, create reliable data models and build reports that allow users to explore information from different perspectives. The course focuses on practical business scenarios, helping you move from simply presenting data to analysing it and using Power BI to support informed decision-making.

Who it's for.

This course is designed for learners who already have a basic understanding of Power BI and want to develop more advanced reporting and data analysis skills. It's ideal for business analysts, managers, finance professionals, administrators, data users and anyone responsible for producing reports or analysing business information.

You should already be comfortable importing data, creating basic visuals and building simple Power BI reports. A basic understanding of Excel and spreadsheet-based data is also useful. The course builds on these skills and introduces more advanced modelling, calculations and reporting techniques.

What you'll learn.

You'll learn how to connect and combine data from multiple sources and use Power Query to clean, transform and prepare datasets for analysis. You'll explore techniques such as removing duplicates, changing data types, splitting and merging columns, filtering information and creating repeatable data preparation workflows.

You'll develop a stronger understanding of data modelling, including relationships between tables, primary and related fields, and how a well-structured model affects the accuracy and performance of your reports. You'll learn how to create calculated columns and measures and use DAX functions for more meaningful calculations and analysis.

You'll also create more advanced interactive reports using slicers, drill-downs, filters, bookmarks, tooltips and cross-filtering. You'll learn how to design report pages with a clear visual hierarchy, allowing users to quickly identify key information while still being able to explore the underlying data in greater detail.

By the end of the course, you'll be able to prepare and model data effectively, create useful DAX calculations and build professional, interactive Power BI reports. You'll have the skills to move beyond basic dashboards and use Power BI as a practical tool for business analysis, reporting and decision-making.

Microsoft Power BI Advanced Course overview.

Take your Power BI skills to an advanced level and learn how to build sophisticated data models, powerful calculations and professional business intelligence solutions. This course builds on your existing Power BI experience and focuses on advanced data transformation, modelling, DAX, performance, reporting and interactive analysis.

You'll learn how to work with more complex datasets and develop robust Power BI solutions that can support real-world business reporting and decision-making. The course moves beyond basic dashboards and explores advanced techniques for building scalable models, creating reusable calculations, improving report performance and presenting complex information clearly.

Who it's for.

This course is aimed at experienced Power BI users who are ready to move beyond intermediate reporting and develop advanced business intelligence skills. It's ideal for data analysts, BI professionals, business analysts, finance professionals, reporting specialists and experienced Power BI users responsible for creating or maintaining complex analytical solutions.

You should already be confident importing and transforming data, creating relationships, building reports and using basic DAX. A good understanding of Power Query and data modelling is recommended, as the course focuses on advanced techniques rather than introductory Power BI concepts.

What you'll learn.

You'll work with advanced Power Query techniques to transform and combine complex datasets, create reusable queries and build efficient data preparation workflows. You'll learn how to structure sophisticated data models, including star schemas, fact and dimension tables, relationship design and techniques for improving model reliability and performance.

A major focus will be advanced DAX. You'll learn how to create sophisticated measures using functions for filtering, context manipulation, time intelligence and advanced calculations. You'll explore concepts such as filter context, row context, CALCULATE, iterators and time-based analysis, allowing you to create calculations that provide much deeper business insight.

You'll also learn advanced reporting techniques, including drill-through, bookmarks, dynamic titles, tooltips, interactive navigation and advanced filtering. You'll explore how to design report experiences that allow users to move from high-level summaries into detailed analysis while keeping complex information clear and easy to understand.

The course will also cover performance optimisation, helping you identify inefficient queries, calculations and data models that can slow down reports. You'll learn practical techniques for improving model structure, reducing unnecessary data and writing more efficient DAX so that your reports remain responsive as datasets become larger and more complex.

By the end of the course, you'll be able to design advanced Power BI solutions from data preparation through to final reporting. You'll have the skills to build sophisticated models, create powerful DAX calculations, optimise performance and deliver professional interactive reports that support detailed business analysis and informed decision-making.
