Make sense of your data
Make sense of your data
Big Data is everywhere and growing every day. Not having enough data to make important decisions is usually not a problem for most organizations today. The challenge is how do you get at this data, consolidate it, synthesize it, and present it to users in a way that they can quickly leverage it.
That’s where Microsoft Power BI comes in. Power BI is a business analytics service that gives you a focused view of your most critical business data. It provides insights throughout your organization by making your vast amount of data consumable. The service allows you to connect to hundreds of data sources, simplify data prep, drive ad hoc analysis, and produce reports and dashboards to easily share relevant information. Data sources can be both inside or outside your organization.
With Power BI end users can create reports and dashboards by themselves, without having to depend on any information technology staff. Skilled IT Professionals can also create advanced reporting systems for sharing insights throughout an organization.
CCEC's Power BI course will show you how to link and model data in Power BI and create visual reports that reveal data insights. Although the Power BI desktop client will be the primary focus, an introduction to the Power BI web app will also be provided. Make sense of your data through interactive, real-time dashboards and unlock the insights needed to drive your business forward.
