Data Analysis and Visualization with Power BI

Yes, there's plenty of hands-on practice, though it's mostly guided exercises rather than open-ended projects. You'll work through activities such as creating a sales report, improving report accessibility, building an interactive report, and assembling a dashboard. That format helps you apply each feature as you learn it instead of only reading about it.

The course focuses on creating effective reports and dashboards, making them easier to navigate and share, and using Power BI's analysis tools to spot patterns in data. You'll practice choosing and formatting visuals, adding filtering and drillthrough, publishing and exporting reports, and using features like forecasting or Key Influencers to investigate trends. Overall, it gives you a rounded view of how Power BI supports both communication and analysis.

After finishing, you should be able to build a clear Power BI report or dashboard that others can explore and understand. For example, you could create a sales report with accessible formatting, interactive filtering, and views that help stakeholders drill into more detail. You'll also be able to use built-in analysis features to explain changes, spot trends, and share the results.

It's best described as concept-first with guided practice. You'll spend a lot of time applying what you learn, but usually after a lesson shows you how the feature works, so it suits learners who want explanation before practice.
