About this course
Power BI turns data from Excel, databases and web services into interactive reports that teams use every day. Learners usually get stuck in the same places: messy data that needs cleaning, relationships between tables, the difference between a calculated column and a measure, and how filter context changes a DAX result.
This course follows the standard Power BI curriculum and the official Microsoft learning paths: connecting to data, cleaning it in Power Query, building a star-schema data model, writing DAX measures, designing report visuals, and publishing to the Power BI service with refresh and sharing. Each module lists its topics and what you will be able to do at the end.
Learn with an affordable 1:1 online mentor who builds reports with you and explains each step with short examples. MentorNxt has free self-study lessons for Java and Python only, so Power BI is taught through mentoring. Message us on WhatsApp or email, or fill in the short form, for a free, no-obligation chat. We will suggest a plan that fits your budget and flexible timings, and you can start this week.
