Power BI is a popular and widely used business intelligence and data visualization tool developed by Microsoft. It empowers organizations to transform raw data into meaningful insights and interactive visualizations, enabling more informed decision-making. You'll begin this course by getting a big picture understanding of what Power BI has to offer, including three core features: data connectivity for easy data loading, transformation and modeling options, and visualizations. Next, you'll install Power BI desktop from the Microsoft Store, and explore its user interface. You'll see where you can build your reports, view your data and set up modeling relationships. Finally, you will access data from a file and learn how to transform and process that data so it can be used for data analysis and visualizations. You will work with Power Query to rename column headers and remove duplicates, learn to merge and split columns, and view data profile, quality, and distribution. When you have your data in the right format, you'll load the data into Power BI and set up a simple bar chart visualization in your report.
