with Val Landry
Power Query allows you to import and shape data. It has an easy to use interface, powerful tools to import and clean data.

Power BI (Business Intelligence) is a complete business intelligence tool. It features incredible visual options, has simple built-in interactive options, fantastic graphs and allows easy sharing of data.
The design of this course includes 2-3 hours of work with the software between classes to gain maximum benefits from the sessions.
You will want to have Microsoft Excel on your computer for this workshop and many people find it helpful to have two monitors, though it is certainly not necessary to benefit from the sessions. There are two ways to accomplish this: 1) attach an external screen to your computer (contact our program if you need technical assistance with that); or 2) using two computers (one for Excel and the other for the ZOOM meeting). This is a live, online class using ZOOM; makeup class, if needed, 01/30/25.
