Student Reviews
I found the course to be a good base for me to start developing Power BI reports. A few times I fell a bit behind but the presenter was able to go through the steps again with me and was patient and helpful when doing this.
Very well presented. Loved the design theory to get an understanding of these foundations. Really well facilitated. I learnt a lot
Thanks Paul for the thorough explanations! Also thanks for sharing best practices, I found them to be very helpful.
Informative, instructor was able to assist for any issue and get you back up to speed, no one left behind
Very good instructor and good pace. Demonstrated tools and functionality very well and also provided good context around what we are actually doing and trying to achieve.
Sean was an approachable and knowledgeable instructor on the day for online learning, went at a good pace and amenable to going back over stages/steps when I was called away for work periodically during the day.
I found the course to be very helpful for my current work, and learned both new Power BI features and expanded on my existing knowledge base.
I very much appreciated the opportunity to retake this course and get a better understanding of the complexities presented.
The course very interesting and insightful. Also, the course instruction was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful in explaining the contents of the course.
It was a fabulous class and I got so much out of it that will help me at work. The AI and other tools that automatically prepared charts or provided summaries was something I didn't know about and was great to knoow.
Danny was an exceptional coach in our session today. Methodical, extremely patient, and really very skilled. The pace was perfect and was very clear in walking through each task. I think the course is well designed, the right amount of repetition to lock in the learning, and then moving on to a higher Level Danny he gave us ample signals on what was coming next, breaks seemed to flow at just the right time, and there was plenty of time to ask questions. Thank you for the extra tuition at the end, have a great weekend Danny. Kate
I really enjoyed the course and how Paul explained everything and was able to relay the information back to the student and make it relevant.
Fantastic training. Adam was engaging and very knowledgeable. I am excited to use the skills I have learned with real time data.
Wonderful day with Paul today, a group of 3 was great and Paul's very cool :) Thanks a lot, Paul. You are amazing instructor!
There is so much to learn! Each trainer has been amazing at what they do, and this has been the most useful course I've done. They are great presenters and very skilled at the courses, able to provide real world applications for the training dependant on our roles.
