Course Description
If you’re a data professional or data analyst looking to learn the top business intelligence platform on the market, or new to Power BI, or want to fill in some gaps in your knowledge, THIS is the course for you.
This course has been recorded for 2023 in full HD video quality, so you will learn about the latest Power BI interface.
You are not just going to learn Power BI, but you will be learning the technical skills necessary to use Power Bi.
That is, how to connect and manipulate data using Power Query, calculate anything and analyze data with Power Pivot, and tell rich, interactive, and immersive data stories through Power Bi visuals and storytelling experiences.
In this course, I will be teaching all about how to collect your data, how to analyze it, how to visualize it, and how to share your insights with the world.
My approach is designed to use Power BI at work on day one.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:
When you join my course you are going to enter the Power BI fast track. You are going to learn the most important parts of a Power BI project and design your first dashboard in as short a time as possible.
You are going to install, launch, and get data into Power BI fast. Then you are going to create your first report and use Power BI at work immediately.
Once you graduate from the fast track you will level up to the expert track.
We’ll start by transforming and shaping data with Power Query, and explore profiling tools, extracting and filtering data, unpivoting, and many more. We’ll create our first project: Analyze the US population data
Next, we’ll dive into combining and merging data, index column, cleaning data, and model relationships. And we are going to create our second project: a sales dashboard.
After that, we’ll learn all about data modeling: cardinality, normalization, and star schemas.
With our model configured, we will start by creating measures and learning DAX functions and calculated columns.
We are going to learn Sum and Count functions, date, and time functions, logical and filter functions in three different sections. Each section has a project so you can fully understand the theory.
Finally, we’ll bring our data to life with milestone projects, like this budget versus actual dashboard.
It’s time to futureproof and accelerate your career by learning Power BI.
So, if you are an analyst, data professional, or a user ready to leave the excel safe zone, then sign up today and get immediate access to high-quality video content, downloadable resources, course projects and assignments, and one-on-one expert support.

Hi, I'm Andreas — and over the past 20 years I've taught Microsoft Excel, Python and the full Microsoft Office suite to more than 80,000 students here on Udemy, who've left over 20,000 reviews.
My approach is simple: short, practical lessons built around real tasks, not theory. You'll open a spreadsheet, follow along, and finish each section able to do something you couldn't do before. No filler, no jargon.
I hold a Master's Degree in Computer Science and a Degree in Electronic Engineering.
Since 2001 I've run Futurekids, my own computer learning school, and I'm the founder of Mellon Training, an online video learning platform. That mix of classroom teaching and software work is what shapes every course I build — I know where learners get stuck, because I've watched it happen in person for two decades.
I live on Rodos, a Greek island, with my family, two kids and a very patient dog. When I'm not recording, I'm usually travelling or reading.
If you get stuck in one of my courses, post in the Q&A — I answer personally.

No useful knowledge, only generic
By Susan Nail on 7/31/2024
It is a very well taught course and also takes you through many sections of the whole Power BI workbook and gives you a glimpse of everything that the excel workbook is capable of.
By Saira Nawaz on 7/24/2024
it was really helpful to learn new courses and instructor did a great job explaining each step with vivid details however some of the slides and power bi files to work on it cannot be downloaded in my system and after downloading , data was also missing that should be worked on .

The course takes you through basic understanding to advanced techniques but the best part is the practical applications used as examples/lessons so when you finish you can build applications for work!
By Fanios on 1/7/2024
This great learning was achieved through the lecturer's guidance and all the other learners that have participated by going through the questions and answers in the Q/A section.
By Scott Foley on 10/30/2023
Great flow of the lesson! I love how you take your time explaining things in a way that helps the student apply this lesson to their own knowledge. The teaching style is "Elite" keep up the great work sir!

I have really enjoyed the course. Its very well estructured, covering many important topics and very well explained. No doubt I will be learning more with Andreas in the near future..Thanks
By Jon on 9/7/2023
I thought I knew everything that would be covered in the sections, but I am amazed at all the things I actually didn't know. Andreas is an awesome teacher! and I am now at the halfway mark, and I have learned so much more than I thought I ever would. I'm so excited for what is to come in this course.
By Bar Pelarthis on 8/24/2023
Very well designed, and very well presented. The teaching is so smooth, and all complexities made look very easy, and really quality stuff. I learned a lot. Thanks for all this!
