Prepare for a future in today's dynamic business environment—enhance your data analysis and visualization skills with Power BI during this virtual Professional Edge training.

In the organizations you will work for, vast amounts of data will be collected every day, and your challenge will be to make sense of it. Excel spreadsheets have their place, but they're static, limited in their ability to visualize data, and time-consuming to build and use. In this training, you will be equipped with the skills to move beyond the confines of stagnant data and transform it into a living, breathing dashboard.

NOTE: This training requires access to a computer running a Windows operating system. Power BI is NOT available on MacOS computers, including MacBooks.
