FAQs

What prior experience do I need for this course?

You should already be comfortable importing data into Power BI, working with Power Query, and have basic familiarity with DAX. This course builds on those skills rather than introducing them.

How is a Power BI report different from a dashboard?

A dashboard displays visuals on a single page for at-a-glance monitoring. A report spans multiple pages and supports filtering, drill-through, and navigation, giving users a richer way to explore data.

Who is this course most useful for?

It is best suited for data analysts, BI developers, and report authors who already use Power BI and want to move beyond basic visuals to build polished, interactive reporting solutions for their organizations.

What is progressive disclosure and how is it used here?

Progressive disclosure is a design pattern that reveals information in stages across multiple screens. In this course, you use Power BI bookmarks and buttons to guide users through a report one section at a time, similar to navigating a website.

Does the course cover Power BI Service as well as Power BI Desktop?

The hands-on exercises focus on Power BI Desktop. Power BI Service concepts such as data gateways, scheduled refresh, and workspaces are introduced in video lessons to give you the full picture.
