Excel & Power BI for Business Intelligence & Data Analysis

Data is everywhere, but the ability to analyze, organize, visualize, and transform that data into meaningful business insights is what truly creates value.

This comprehensive training program is designed to help you build practical business intelligence and data analysis skills using Microsoft Excel, Power BI, Power Pivot, and DAX.

Whether you are a student, analyst, accountant, reporting professional, business user, entrepreneur, or working professional, this course is designed to help you move from spreadsheet-based reporting toward more advanced business intelligence and analytics workflows.

The course begins with strong Excel fundamentals, where you’ll learn workbook structure, formatting, formulas, sorting, filtering, charts, printing, and essential Excel productivity concepts.

You’ll then transition into Power Pivot, where you’ll learn how to work with large datasets, build relationships, create data models, and develop analytical reporting workflows.

The course also introduces Data Analysis Expressions or DAX, where you’ll learn how calculated columns, measures, iterator functions, filter functions, relationship functions, and time intelligence calculations work in Power Pivot and Power BI.

You’ll work with practical DAX concepts, including CALCULATE, FILTER, ALL, RELATED, RELATEDTABLE, SUMX, MAXX, RANKX, YTD, QTD, MTD, DatesInPeriod, DatesBetween, and other analytical workflows used in business reporting and analytics.

The program then moves into Microsoft Power BI, where you’ll learn how to:

• Create reports and dashboards

• Work with slicers and filters
• Create interactive reports
• Build relationships
• Create DAX measures
• Publish reports
• Work with mobile dashboards
• Develop practical business intelligence workflows

You’ll also learn how to create visual reports using:

• Clustered charts
• Stacked charts
• Trend analysis visuals
• Area charts
• Ribbon charts
