Why choose this Power BI training?
It's intensive, and it's hands-on
We pack in more than most two-day courses. Every topic starts with a demonstration, then you build it yourself on real datasets. No death by PowerPoint, and you finish having created solutions you can use straight away.

- Course content is comprehensive and business-focused, covering data transformation, star schemas, DAX, data modelling and publication-quality visual design through genuine scenarios.
Great Power BI training course. The content was clear and easy to follow, and the instructor provided helpful support throughout the course. I gained valuable knowledge and had a positive learning experience.
Great Power BI training course. The modules and support from the course leader were very helpful and well delivered. I really enjoyed the experience.
Very informative and enjoyable training course. Learned loads about DAX and data modelling, and I could have stayed for a week. It's delivered in a small group with plenty of hands-on experience, so you come away being able to actually build something useful rather than just following abstract examples. The follow-up support is handy too - I had a question a week later and they were really helpful with a quick reply that solved my problem.
Thanks Red Eagle Tech for helping me to upskill on Power BI. This masterclass exceeded my expectations. The curriculum is thoughtfully structured, with a good introduction of the solution from end-to-end, followed by a deeper dive through data modelling fundamentals, sophisticated DAX calculations and visual design principles. The instructor bridges theory and practice and you will learn the concepts by working through genuine business scenarios in the practical lab sessions. I have since recommended this training to colleagues as it’s a genuinely worthwhile professional development investment.
I'm a researcher and needed to present data more effectively. The Power BI masterclass was excellent - covered everything from data cleaning to publication-quality visuals. The trainer was patient with questions and clearly experienced. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing to up their data game.
Really good training course, thanks Red Eagle Tech. I learned loads about data transformation, creating proper relationships between tables and transforming the data into a star schema, which makes it so much easier to create data visualisations that really work well for my projects. The training is top notch – can’t recommend enough.
As someone who was intimidated by data visualisation, this course was perfect. It started with basics and built up to some really impressive stuff. The practical exercises they provide are excellent - and quite challenging! I've learned a lot and I'm already using Power BI daily in my marketing role.
As a busy Operations Director I needed to get a handle on our data across multiple sites. The Power BI Masterclass was exactly what I needed – practical, business-focused, and no unnecessary padding. I built my first dashboard immediately after the course and my colleagues and I are extremely happy with the results. Worth every penny.
Good solid training. Comprehensive coverage of Power BI capabilities and the trainer clearly knew the subject inside out. I learned a great deal and have implemented several dashboards at my firm. The practical exercises are a big part of this course – it’s really hands on. I learned a lot. Would definitely recommend as an intensive introduction to Power BI. Even if you haven’t used it before, you can come away from this course being able to build real working solutions.

What this Power BI training course covers
Seven modules across two days. Day one covers the foundations and data preparation; day two moves into advanced calculations, interactive reports and deployment. Every module starts with a demonstration, then you do it yourself.
Getting started with Power BI
We start with a big-picture understanding of Power BI and a high-speed run through the end-to-end workflow: importing data, creating reports and a dashboard, and sharing it with a colleague.
- Power BI ecosystem overview
- End-to-end workflow demonstration
- Basic report creation
- Sharing and collaboration basics
Power BI Desktop
Power BI Desktop is where self-service reports are built. We import data using the Query Editor, create a dataset, and model the data to make it better suited for analysis.
- Query Editor fundamentals
- Dataset creation
- Data modelling basics
- Report design principles
Extract and transform data using queries
Everything starts with bringing in the data you need. We work with the Power Query features of Power BI Desktop to extract data from sources such as Azure cloud storage and transform it into meaningful information.
- Power Query M language
- Data source connections
- Data transformation techniques
- Azure integration
Creating user-friendly data models
The data model is what really makes a report work. We use Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) to create dynamic measures that update in real time as you interact with the report.
- DAX fundamentals
- Creating calculated columns
- Building measures
- Real-time calculations
Modelling with time series and hierarchies
The most valuable business insights often come from slicing data into relevant categories and hierarchies. We also use a calendar table to produce time-based financial analysis with the DAX time intelligence functions.
- Creating hierarchies
- Calendar tables
- Time intelligence functions
- Financial analysis
Designing interactive reports
How quickly data turns into actionable insight depends on how well it's presented. We focus on report design, including custom visuals from the App Store and setting permissions with row-level security.
- Report design best practices
- Custom visuals
- Interactive features
- Row-level security
Creating and deploying solutions
We create and deploy a packaged solution to an audience of business users in a Microsoft 365 environment, and build a dashboard that consolidates the most important information from several reports.
- Solution packaging
- Microsoft 365 deployment
- Dashboard creation
- Report consolidation
Certification and CPD
Working towards PL-300?
The course is aligned to the Microsoft PL-300 (Power BI Data Analyst) syllabus and covers the vast majority of it. We're honest about this: it is a practical, skills-first course, not an exam cram, so we don't claim 100% coverage of every exam objective.
What it does give you is a strong, hands-on foundation across the syllabus, which is exactly what shortens your preparation if you go on to sit the exam. If certification is your goal, our UK guide to the PL-300 certification walks through the exam, the cost and how to book it.
CPD-eligible learning
The course provides around 13 hours of structured professional learning, which you can record as Continuing Professional Development with your professional body, subject to its rules.
To record it as CPD: keep your certificate of completion and the course outline as evidence, log the date, provider and hours, and write a short reflection on how you've applied what you learned.
The course is not yet formally CPD accredited, although we are pursuing accreditation. Acceptance and the number of hours you can claim depend on your own professional body.
We don't do boring
Forget stuffy lectures and snooze-inducing slides. This is Power BI training that keeps you engaged and actually remembering what you've learned.
Real problems, real solutions
You tackle real-world scenarios and hands-on exercises at every stage. By the time you leave, you've built solutions you can use the moment you're back at your desk.
Meet your winged guide
Meldrick pops up with insider tips, warns you about common pitfalls, and shares the shortcuts that make you look like a genius. Together you'll nail every exercise.
A bit of friendly competition
Between exercises we fire up our Kahoot quizzes. Speed matters, accuracy counts, and bragging rights are included. Can you claim the top spot?
