Course was amazing. It was great to have minimal technical context to maximise practical application
The balance between theory and practical application kept the material engaging and relevant. The facilitator explained the concepts clearly and regularly checked that the group was following before moving on. The only constructive feedback I have is that the demo dataset is very much related to Profit/Sales, this might not be relevant to course participants which makes it tricky to apply when returning to our roles.
The Power BI Report Design course was very helpful. I learned a range of techniques for using and designing different chart types effectively. Dani was a great trainer. The pace of the course was excellent, and she was always helpful, providing clear explanations and support throughout the session.
Danny was an excellent instructor. He was very knowledgeable and patient, and I learnt a lot from the course.
Nice and in dept conversation and training. I was able to have a few questions answered to help with my position with using Power BI. Only negative was the system kept crashing for the instructor, which caused moments of delay.
Great course, very clear and easy to follow, could be a bit more interactive with the class participants.
The course was well structured, and the facilitator was engaging and friendly. The curriculum was helpful and relevant.
The teacher has provided very useful knowledge and practical skills to students. The course was very valuable.
Gave valuable content about using PowerBI, wanting to put this into practice into my work environment and try all the new concepts.
Adam was a fantastic instructor. The course was well paced covered a wide range of tips to visually enhance the design of reports. Not only did it cover the practical applications of report design, but Adam also provided valuable knowledge on the theoretical components and professional tips to keep in mind to ensure reports are configured in an accessible and professional mannerism. This course was great value and assisted in enhancing my growing knowledge of Power BI.
Great course and very relevant to the things I need to implement at work right now. Adam is an excellent instructor who explains the concepts clearly and makes the material easy to follow.
The instructor was very engaging but, like with previous PBI courses, I would have liked some more independent work to cement the content.
Power BI Report Design Course was very useful to gain in-depth knowledge particularly formatting, visualisation, creating Tooltip, Drill through etc. Thanks.
Adam was again fantastic. Course really dived into the details of report designing. We were allowed to ask questions and go off course in practical ways. Looking forward to the advanced 2-day course.
Gordana is extremely calm and knowledgeable. She helped me during the break to catch-up which was very generous.
