Description

COURSE OVERVIEW

A Power BI dashboard is a single page, often called a canvas, that uses visualizations to tell a story. Because it is limited to one page, a well-designed dashboard contains only the most-important elements of that story. The visualizations on a dashboard come from reports and each report is based on one dataset. In fact, one way to think of a dashboard is as an entryway into the underlying reports and datasets. Selecting a visualization takes you to the report that was used to create it.

Presenting data with Microsoft Power BI is simple as anyone can draw charts on the canvas and start visualizing numbers graphically. Unfortunately, it is not easy to design a good and appealing dashboard. This 2-day course Power BI dashboard design course is designed for Power BI creators who wish to learn how to create beautiful and effective dashboards, while avoiding all the common design pitfalls and mistakes.
