What is Power BI & Power BI Desktop
Microsoft Power BI is a business intelligence tool that connects to various data sources and creates interactive visualizations to help you uncover insights.

In this module, you will:
- Understand what Power BI is and its business value
- Install and navigate Power BI Desktop
- Identify key components and regional settings
- Learn core features and the Power BI workflow
Shaping data with Power BI Desktop
Power BI Desktop connects to multiple data sources through built-in connectors. Power Query, its data transformation engine, enables you to clean, reshape, and prepare data using an intuitive interface.
In this module, you will:

What is data modeling?
Data modeling involves organizing data from multiple sources and defining relationships between tables to create a unified model. In Power BI Desktop, this allows you to build dynamic visuals and reports.
A well-designed model simplifies data and improves report performance. You will also learn how to use the star schema and create calculated columns and measures using DAX (Data Analysis Expressions).
In this module, you will:
- Define and create a data model
- Build and manage relationships between tables
- Understand relationship cardinality
DAX overview
Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) is the formula language in Power BI, used for calculations and data analysis. It helps you create measures, columns, and tables for advanced reporting.
In this module, you will:
- Create DAX tables, columns, and measures
- Use operators and mathematical functions
- Apply date, time, and text functions
- Use CALCULATE and FILTER functions for dynamic results
