What is the Power BI Training course?
Power BI Training is a 20-hour instructor-led programme for analysts and reporting teams. Participants move from raw files to a reusable semantic model, write and test DAX measures, build an interactive report and plan how it will be refreshed and shared. Copilot is included where the client environment meets Microsoft’s capacity, tenant and region requirements; the core course does not depend on Copilot access. It is a Power BI course for Bangalore learners, and Power BI corporate training for company teams.

Power BI, Excel or Tableau—which course fits?
Choose according to the work participants must perform after training.
| Course | Best for | Choose it when |
|---|---|---|
| Power BI Training in Bangalore This course | Bengaluru teams and learners | Choose this for Power Query, semantic modelling, DAX and Power BI publishing, delivered in Bengaluru or online. |
| Power BI Training (India and online) | Learners and teams anywhere in India | Choose this for live online cohorts or onsite team training in any Indian city. |
| Advanced Excel Training | Spreadsheet reporting and models | Choose this when formulas, PivotTables and workbook workflows are the immediate gap. |
| Tableau Training | Tableau calculations and visual exploration | Choose this when Tableau Desktop, Server or Cloud is the organisation’s reporting platform. |
The business problems this course addresses
The programme follows the failure points that make Power BI reports hard to trust or maintain.
| Task | The usual problem | What participants practise |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly data preparation | Analysts repeat cleanup steps across files. | Build parameterised, refreshable Power Query transformations. |
| Data modelling | Flat tables and ambiguous relationships create incorrect totals. | Design a star schema with clear grain, keys and relationship direction. |
| Business calculations | Measures work on one visual and fail under another filter. | Reason about filter context and test DAX against known totals. |
| Dashboard design | Pages are crowded and the audience cannot see the decision. | Use an information hierarchy, purposeful interactions and a review checklist. |
What participants will be able to do
Practise the skills below through course exercises, then check the results and explain how you would apply them to your work.
Prepare reusable data
Connect, clean, reshape and combine sources using documented Power Query steps.
Design a sound model
Define fact and dimension tables, relationships, grain and a maintainable date table.
Write and test DAX
Build measures for KPIs, time comparisons, ranking and contribution, then reconcile their results.
Create an interactive report
Use visuals, filters, drill paths and tooltips to support a defined audience decision.
Plan publishing and refresh
Identify workspace, access, refresh and ownership decisions before handover.
Use Copilot conditionally
Draft measures, visuals or summaries where access allows, while reviewing the generated logic and figures.

DAX
by MicrosoftCalculation language for measures, calculated columns and tables.
- Business KPIs
- Time intelligence
- Ranking and contribution analysis
- Used in
- Measure-writing and debugging labs.
- What to verify
- Test measures under different filters; context can change the result.
Power BI Service
by MicrosoftPublishing, sharing, refresh and workspace governance.
- Workspace planning
- Access and sharing
- Refresh and handover
- Used in
- Publishing walkthrough or environment-specific demonstration.
- What to verify

Power BI, Excel or Tableau: choose around the work
Start with the task and your organisation’s reporting environment, not a universal tool ranking. Excel is useful for spreadsheet-based exploration and financial models; Power BI suits a reusable model and shared reporting workflow; Tableau is another route for interactive visual analysis. Learning more than one tool can help, but is not a prerequisite for every analyst role.
- For recurring management dashboards, assess data preparation, the semantic model, refresh, access control and distribution—not only chart design.
- For ad-hoc calculations and scenario models, strengthen spreadsheet fundamentals before adding a reporting platform.
- If your employer already uses Tableau, build on that environment rather than switching solely for a course.
- Compare the actual licences, capacity, sharing requirements and administrator setup. Do not assume Microsoft 365 includes every Power BI or Copilot capability.
Compare Tableau training, Advanced Excel training and SQL for querying the source data.
Where Power BI skills fit in your career
The original role pathways include Data Analyst, Business Intelligence Analyst, MIS Executive or Manager, BI Developer, Reporting Analyst, Analytics Consultant and Power BI Specialist. A course supports skill development; suitability for a vacancy also depends on experience, domain knowledge and the rest of the role’s requirements.
Build a portfolio that shows the source data, preparation steps, model relationships, tested measures and a dashboard that answers a business question. For a developer-oriented role, explain refresh, permissions and maintenance as well as the visuals. Use synthetic or approved data in anything you publish.
Exercises and practical outputs
Participants build one reporting solution progressively instead of completing disconnected feature demonstrations.
How every module runs
Prepare
Inspect and transform the source data.
Model
Define the grain, relationships and business entities.
Calculate
Write measures and reconcile them to known totals.
Present and govern
Design the report and document publishing, access and refresh.
Exercises use realistic examples with no sensitive data. What participants make in the workshop is for practice and review, and anything they keep is their own working material.
A report that looks right can still be wrong
Every course treats data quality, checking calculations and controlling access as part of the work, not as an optional last step.
Check the product’s current documentation and your company’s data rules before you use these methods at work.
Use approved data
Use public, made-up, cleaned-up or company-approved data. Remove personal and confidential fields before using any outside AI service.
Trace every number
Match row counts, totals, filters, joins and time periods to the source before a report is used for a decision.
Review generated logic
Read every formula, DAX measure, SQL query, calculated field and Python script that AI writes. Test the edge cases instead of trusting output that only sounds right.
Publish with controls
Before sharing a workbook or dashboard, confirm who can see it, who refreshes it, how sensitive the data is and who reviews it.
How the course is tailored and delivered
Private programmes are built around the reports, data, tool versions and decisions your people deal with at work. Public batches use neutral practice data, so people from different companies can work safely.
From first conversation to evaluation
Map the work
Find out the roles, current skill level, regular reports and the decisions the training should help with.
Confirm the environment
Check software versions, licences, database access, security rules and whether your data can be used in exercises.
Shape the labs
Choose realistic data and outputs, then decide how deep to go on formulas, models, charts or code.
Practise and review
People build during the session, explain their choices and use a checklist before showing the result.

Common questions before planning this course
Answers about the course as published. Your written proposal records any changes we agree, how it is delivered and the price.
Are public cohorts available for Power BI Training?
Public batches run live online when dates are published. Send an enquiry for the next available dates. Your place is held only when Technovids confirms the batch in writing.
What is included for a public-cohort learner?
The Technovids LMS gives you session notes, assignments, lab guides and recordings for three months after the batch. We explain what you need to complete and how the certificate works at the start.
Is a completion certificate provided?
Yes. Learners who meet the completion requirements get a Technovids certificate with a unique ID you can check on the Technovids website. It is not a vendor certification.
Who provides the laptop, software and licences?
Bring your own suitable laptop. We confirm the software version, accounts and licences you need beforehand. For private programmes, a practice environment or virtual machine can be arranged separately if needed.
Can the course be delivered for a corporate team?
Yes. The private version can use your approved data, report standards and business examples. It can run live online or at your office, with scope and price confirmed in the proposal.
Do I need Excel or SQL before learning Power BI?
Basic comfort with tables and business data is enough for the foundation route. Excel helps with familiar reporting concepts, and SQL helps with database work, but neither is a mandatory prerequisite for the standard programme.
Is Copilot included?
Copilot concepts and review practices are included. Hands-on Copilot use depends on eligible Microsoft capacity, tenant settings, permissions and region. When it is unavailable, the core modelling, DAX and dashboard labs continue without it.
Is this a Microsoft certification course?
No. This is practical Power BI training delivered by Technovids. The completion certificate is issued by Technovids and is not a Microsoft credential or exam result.
