Getting started with Power BI
Microsoft Power BI is a business intelligence tool that connects to various data sources and creates interactive visualizations to help you uncover insights. Whether your data comes from Excel, CSV files, or cloud and on-premises databases, Power BI lets you connect, transform, model, and visualize data easily.

- Install and navigate Power BI Desktop
- Identify key components and regional settings
- Learn core features and the Power BI workflow
Shaping data with Power BI Desktop
Power BI Desktop connects to multiple data sources through built-in connectors. Power Query, its data transformation engine, enables you to clean, reshape, and prepare data using an intuitive interface.
What you'll learn
- Identify different data connectors
- Connect to sources such as Excel, CSV, and PBIDS
- Assess data using Column Quality, Distribution, and Profile
- Apply basic transformations, handle nulls and errors, adjust data types
- Create Index, Conditional, and Example-based columns
- Group and aggregate data; Pivot and unpivot tables
- Merge and append queries using Power Query Editor
Creating a data model
Data modeling involves organizing data from multiple sources and defining relationships between tables to create a unified model. In Power BI Desktop, this allows you to build dynamic visuals and reports. A well-designed model simplifies data and improves report performance. You will also learn how to use the star schema and create calculated columns and measures using DAX (Data Analysis Expressions).
What you'll learn
- Define and create a data model
- Build and manage relationships between tables
- Understand relationship cardinality
Analyzing data using Data Analysis Expressions (DAX)
Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) is the formula language in Power BI, used for calculations and data analysis. It helps you create measures, columns, and tables for advanced reporting.
What you'll learn
- Create DAX tables, columns, and measures
- Use operators and mathematical functions
- Apply date, time, and text functions
- Use CALCULATE and FILTER functions for dynamic results
Data visualization
Power BI makes it easy to create insightful reports with rich visualizations that help you explore data and make informed decisions.
What you'll learn
- Explore built-in visual types and their applications
- Create visuals such as bar charts, line charts, hierarchy charts, Sankey diagrams

What our alumni say
"As a leader of a BI organization, I came to the Bootcamp to learn as much as I could about predictive analytics. The week was intense, but it far exceeded my expectations. I learned the processes; I learned the theory; and I gained lots of hands on practice. This course gave me the knowledge and the the tool experience to bring predictive analytics back to my company - Jim Hill attended Data Science and Data Engineering Bootcamp."
