Training Course Overview

As businesses increasingly generate vast amounts of data, the ability to transform this information into actionable insights has become a key competitive advantage. Data mining and big data analytics offer organizations the ability to uncover hidden patterns, forecast future trends, and make informed decisions that drive growth and operational efficiency. The Power BI: Data Mining and Big Data Analytics training course is designed to equip professionals with the skills needed to leverage the full potential of big data using Microsoft Power BI, one of the most powerful and intuitive tools for business intelligence and data analysis. This course covers everything from importing and processing large datasets to applying advanced data mining techniques within Power BI. Participants will learn how to model and visualize complex data, identify significant patterns and relationships, and integrate predictive analytics using AI features. With a strong emphasis on practical application, the course is ideal for data analysts, business intelligence professionals, and decision-makers looking to extract valuable insights from big data and apply them to real-world challenges. By the end of the course, attendees will have the expertise to tackle big data challenges, utilize advanced DAX functions for customized analytics, and design visually compelling dashboards that provide clear insights for strategic decision-making. This training enables participants to not only analyze large datasets but also to drive data-driven initiatives within their organizations, turning data into a valuable competitive asset.

This training course will feature:

  • Overview of data mining and big data analytics in today’s data-centric world
  • Understanding the role of Power BI in analyzing large datasets
  • Key objectives of the course and expected outcomes for participants

Training Course Objectives
