Power BI Dashboard Design Video Course

Designing dashboards seems like a simple task, thanks to modern BI tools. In reality, designing dashboards that are useful and that people want to use is not so easy. A good dashboard must follow specific rules and design concepts, which this video course aims to teach you.

Here are some of the goals of the Power BI Dashboard Design video course:

• It aims to teach you how to design beautiful dashboards that people use every day.
• It is designed specifically for Microsoft Power BI, but you can learn even if you never used Power BI before.
• It is a reference guide that you can use later. No software updates will change the concepts that you learn here.
• It is not just theory, but real examples and comparisons between well-designed and difficult-to-use dashboards.
• It is not a tutorial on how Power BI works, but you will find some useful references for learning it, if needed.
• It is not just for designers. Every person who creates dashboards can benefit from it. Even if you are a designer, you will learn usability tips that many of your colleagues usually underestimate.

The video course is divided in four parts:

• The first part explains what a dashboard is. People are usually confused about the exact definition;
• The second part is a brief introduction to the Power BI features, with some resources to start from scratch;
• The third part is the most important, and it includes the 15 rules to design a perfect dashboard;
• The last part is the chart reference, and you can use it to choose the right charts based on the kind of data you have to display.

The course includes several samples and resources, and additional written material to further explain the topics discussed by the teachers.

Power BI Visuals Reference

The last section of the course classifies the visuals available in Power BI. This classification is also displayed in a single PDF that you can download for free. You can print or display it to make a guided choice of the right visuals for your dashboards.

Students of the video course have access to a private discussion area where they can interact with the instructors asking questions related to the lectures and the exercises.
