Creative Designing in Power BI

Microsoft focuses on the presentation decisions that turn analysis into a usable report. Visualization and page design precede dashboards and storytelling. The beginner course is a comparison option for learners who already have data to present and want to improve the reader’s experience.

What you will learn

• Choose visual encodings for a report question.
• Organize a Power BI report page.
• Connect dashboard layout with a data story.

Who this suits

Beginners comfortable using computers; previous analysis experience is unnecessary.

Before you enroll

Design depends on the audience and task. Keep accessibility and the meaning of a measure visible while experimenting with the appearance of a page.
