Microsoft Power BI – The Beginners Guide to Building Great Dashboards

Power BI is the future of business reporting and this class is a great introduction to anyone new to Power BI.

I have been using Power BI for the past couple of years now and taught myself through a combination of online tutorials, videos and a lot of trial and error. I therefore know the key skills required to take your data and transform it into a great report.

I aim this video as if it were myself just starting out and cover all the key basics with simple instructions using all of the in-built functionality and most importantly, no coding!

I will take you right from the beginning, from downloading the software, importing the data, building the report with the inbuilt visuals, perfecting the report and uploading it online ready to share and build dashboards.

 The skills learned will allow you to take any set of data and from this build great reports and dashboards suitable for sharing data within your teams and the wider business.
