Course Details

As technology progresses and becomes more interwoven with daily lives, more data about business and personal activities is collected. This "big data" era directly results from the popularity and growth of cloud computing, which provides abundant computational power and storage, allowing organizations to capture and store data. Leveraging that data can provide timely insights and competitive advantages. 

Creating data-backed visualizations is vital for data scientists or professionals to explore, analyze, and report insights and trends from data. Microsoft® Power BI® software serves this purpose. Power BI connects to a wide range of data sources, enabling users to quickly visualize connected data to gain insights, show trends, and create reports. Power BI's data connection capabilities and visualization features go far beyond those found in spreadsheets, enabling users to create compelling and interactive worksheets, dashboards, and stories that bring data to life and turn data into thoughtful action.
