Description
This training course was developed by Matt Allington, a Microsoft MVP (Power BI) and author of the best selling book Supercharge Power BI.
Microsoft Power BI is a self service Business Intelligence tool used for creating, publishing, and sharing reports. You can also create dashboards that will enable your organization’s decision-makers to easily navigate across all datasets to gain real business insights from a one-stop-shop.
In this course you will learn everything you need to know to start using the Power BI family of tools without having to be a programmer. The course is for beginners; it doesn’t require any programming or reporting experience and starts with a dataset that has already been prepared for you. (There is no coverage of data modeling in this course, as this is discussed in Matt’s companion course, Extracting Insights with Power BI and DAX.)

SUBSCRIPTION & PRICING DETAILS
The course is on an annual subscription basis, with a list price of $99 USD for the first year ($29 annual subscription + a $70 sign-up fee) and then $29 USD/year after that. As noted above, this course currently consists of a live recording of an actual training class. The video has been edited and is of a high quality but given the nature of live training, the audio quality does vary at times. It is always audible and clear, but lacks consistency in some places. The course will be re-recorded using studio settings in the coming months and the videos will be replaced when they are ready.
On your annual renewal date, your subscription will be automatically renewed with the credit card information on file, unless you cancel your subscription beforehand. You will be emailed a renewal reminder about one month before the renewal date. Please see the FAQs below for more information about subscription renewals and cancellations.
