Happy learning!-Chris & Aaron (Maven Analytics)See why this is one of the TOP-RATED Power BI courses in the world:”I believe this is the best Power BI course out there. I spent £1400 to attend a 3-day Power BI crash course, and have to confess it’s nothing compared to the knowledge, skills, expertise and understanding derived from this course. I am forever grateful to Chris and the Maven Analytics team for doing such amazing work and to Udemy for making this available.”-Isaac Mensah Resources are awesome. Presenter is brilliant. I found this course more useful than the official Power BI course from Microsoft. Things are easy to follow, and presentations are high quality.-Jacobus M. Chris is a skilled communicator and does a great job of explaining a complex tool like Microsoft Power BI. His ‘pro-tips’ are great for new user productivity and gaining a sense of the big picture, and I value his best practices on building and managing Power BI queries and reports. I’m feeling much more confident to dig in and use Power BI on my own projects!-Bill Jerrow”Simply put, this course is AMAZING! The instructor literally takes you step-by-step from knowing nothing about Power BI into nearly an expert! I have had experience working with Power BI even in a corporate setting in the past, and I was still blown away by the level of granularity Chris was able to casually explain in a way that made sense. The hands-on exercises are THE perfect way to reinforce the concepts you learn throughout the course and connect theory to application. Can’t speak enough to how great this course is, I will definitely be coming back to it as a reference guide in my work and would recommend it to anyone looking to learn Power BI!”-Ikenna Egbosimba”I’ve been in university classrooms for much of my life and Chris is a university level instructor.”-Allan Searl Looking for the full business intelligence stack?
