Learn Microsoft Power BI and Power Pivot, Power Query and DAX in Excel in this two-course bundle from Microsoft experts Simon Sez IT.

We've combined two of our best data analysis courses to create this huge-value bundle. If you have reached your limit in Excel and you need to analyze and make sense of huge amounts of data, then you need Power Pivot, Power Query and Power BI. These tools can help you take your existing data-crunching capabilities to new heights!

Power Pivot, Power Query and DAX

In this advanced Excel course, we look at three crucial advanced Excel features Power Pivot, Power Query, and DAX. This suite of Excel functions allows you to manipulate, analyze, and evaluate millions of rows of data from Excel or other databases.

We first look at how to bring your data together, merge, and clean it using Power Query before moving onto creating relationships between our data tables and building out a data model. We then look at performing calculations on our data model using DAX, and finally, we look at displaying our analysis using PivotTables and PivotCharts.

***Exercise and demo files included***

In the Power Pivot, Power Query & DAX course you will learn:

• How to get started with Power Query

• How to connect Excel to multiple workbooks

• How to get data from the web and other sources

• How to merge and append queries using Power Query

• How the Power Pivot window works

• How to set up and manage relationships in a data model

• How to create a PivotTable to display your data from the Power Pivot data model

• How to add calculated columns using DAX

• How to use functions such as CALCULATE, DIVIDE, DATESYTD in DAX

• All about creating Pivot Charts and PivotTables and using your data model

• How to use slicers to adjust the data you display

Power BI

Power BI is an incredibly powerful, self-service Business Intelligence (BI) solution from Microsoft. It is the perfect Business Intelligence tool for people with limited technical experience.

In this Power BI course, we start by looking at Power Query, and how to use this tool to organize and clean our data. We then show you how to build a Data Model and relate separate tables. After that, we teach you all about the data analysis language DAX in Power BI. Finally, we look at how to present this data using the charts and graphs available.

In the Power BI course you will learn:

• What is Power BI and why you should be using it.

• To import CSV and Excel files into Power BI Desktop.

• How to use Merge Queries to fetch data from other queries.

• How to create relationships between the different tables of the data model.

• All about DAX including using the COUTROWS, CALCULATE, and SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR functions.

• All about using the card visual to create summary information.

• How to use other visuals such as clustered column charts, maps, and trend graphs.

• How to use Slicers to filter your reports.

• How to use themes to format your reports quickly and consistently.

• How to edit the interactions between your visualizations and filter at visualization, page, and report level.

Here’s what our students are saying…

"Very detailed course, really enjoyed the Power BI section. Simon has done a really good job explaining each process step. Looking forward to completing additional Power BI courses for advance techniques."

- Martin

"Brilliant course. I'm quite new to the world of POWER and this course has shown me what it can do in a way that a newbie can understand. Recommended. I will be looking for other courses by them."

- Andrew

"Extremely clear instructions and has framed the subject matter as usable in the real world as opposed to just an academic sample. I was exposed to Power Pivot in one of my classes in college but it was presented in a way that made it difficult to apply to my work. Glad I found this course!"

- Jeff

"The best course where you can get the knowledge from Advance Excel to Power Bi. Highly recommended for Excel data analyst."
