Power BI

Microsoft Power BI

Business Intelligence (BI) is a term that has become increasingly common over recent years. Along with big data, data mining, predictive analytics, data science, and data stewards, BI is now very much part of business vocabulary. Much of the impetus behind this is the need for organizations to cope with ever-increasing datasets. It is now normal to have databases that contain millions of rows, requiring gigabytes, terabytes, or even petabytes, of storage space. Data is no longer confined to an on-premises server room, it is hosted in the cloud, feeds are taken from third-party providers, public datasets are freely available, and social media interactions generate ever-expanding datasets. Reporting and analysis is certainly not a new concept to business, but the difference between how data analysis is done today, compared with five or 10 years ago, is immense.

Requirements:

  • You will need to have a PC/Windows laptop loaded with the latest version of Microsoft Power BI (available as a free download). Note that Power BI does not currently run natively on a Mac.
  • Whilst this course is designed to cover Power BI from the ground up, some experience of working with data in Excel would be beneficial.
This course is delivered onsite. E-mail NES Africa Group: training@nes-africa.com for more information.
