Overview
The main purpose of this course is to give participants a comprehensive understanding of data analysis with Power BI, covering both the fundamentals and advanced capabilities. Participants will learn how to create impactful visualisations, transform and model data, and leverage the Power BI Service for collaboration and sharing.
