This course teaches participants how to build end-to-end Power BI reports—from importing and transforming data, to modelling relationships, creating DAX measures and columns, and delivering interactive visuals that can be published and shared in the Power BI Service.

Quick facts

  • Ideal for: Analysts, managers, and anyone creating reports/dashboards in Power BI.

  • Transform and shape data in Power Query (rename, remove/split columns, merge queries, replace/fill values, set data types).
  • Design a reliable data model by creating and managing table relationships.
  • Create core DAX measures (e.g., SUM, AVERAGE, SUMX, AVERAGEX) and format them for consistent reporting.
  • Create DAX calculated columns for grouping, filtering, and mapping.
  • Build and format interactive report visuals (matrix, charts, slicers, cards, and maps).
  • Use visual, page, and report-level filtering—including Top N and drill-through pages.
  • Apply report features such as field parameters, bookmarks, and action buttons.
  • Enhance reports with selected custom visuals.
