Power BI Bootcamp NYC or Live Online | Basic to Advanced Power BI Training

Why Learn Power BI?

Power BI is well-known as an industry leader for streamlining the process from data to insights. This fully featured app enables you to build interactive data visualizations such as charts, graphs, maps, and other colorful representations of data that are informative and aesthetically pleasing. Power BI is a powerful tool, giving you full control of the look and feel of your visualizations to create dynamic reports and dashboards.

Create & Distribute Interactive Visualizations

In this training, you’ll learn to import data from various sources (like Excel, Text/CSV, SQL, and more) using Power Query. Then explore, structure, analyze, and filter the data to create visualizations. Aggregate the data (using SUM, COUNT, MIN/MAX) to gain insights. You’ll also start to learn about Power BI’s DAX language that powers its data visualizations.
