Dashboard in a Day - partnering with ANS (REMOTE)

Dashboard in a Day is a workshop designed to introduce people to the basics of authoring reports and data models in Power BI. This will be a hands-on learning session where you will follow lab exercises whilst learning from a Microsoft Power BI Specialist throughout the day. The labs will cover: • Connecting to data • Shaping and transforming that data in Power Query • Building the relational data model and adding measures to it • Building the report, insights, and visualisations. Whilst the end goal for this workshop is traditionally to build a report, we will also be going into how the semantic model can be used to consume your insights through various AI channels. This particular event will be hosted by ANS in their offices in Manchester, however there is a hybrid option to join remotely.
