The course was quite challenging and quite a detailed with regards to the core functionality of Power BI.

For a Microsoft learning process, this is a total disappointment. Most of the key exercises lack the product tools to do it. They provide you with power BI examples that don't have the correct data to do the exercise. I don't encourage or recommend nobody to do this module.

After reading about others having the same issues I had, over a year ago, it seems this course has been abandoned from fixing mistakes. There are a lot of errors, little guidance, and it covers a mountain of knowledge. Serious room for improvement.

Great course except some mismatch in data file contents.

Frequently felt lost regarding DAX. I think a significant more time working with it is needed. Felt as if the course expected you to use it fluently after only a brief introduction. In addition, some PBIX functionality didn't work because it seems like the data source was linked to the publisher of the file. This made it so I was unable to complete some assessments, and was forced to guess or brute force it to continue. For example, I was getting a DataSource.Error that stated "Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\maharajs\Downloads\Customers.csv'." This is not my name, nor a user on my computer, so I have assumed that it is related to the author of the file.

The content is good and I learned a lot. Unfortunately, removing 2 stars due to bad formulated questions in the graded assignments, very often ambiguous. The steps of the exercises not always align with the content or naming of the files. The PBIX files do not allow me to transform data as the data source is not available so we need the source data instead. The exercises and questions in the graded assignments need a lot of improvement.

Content seems too condensed for the time period - lots and lots of info packed a short expected timescale. That being said, the content also lacks sufficient guidance, particularly when referring to particular calculations - you are merely tasked with making it, not scaffolded into using a particular calculation/function. Adding to this is the use of functions within calculations - not only are you learning a new function, you are learning how an alternative new function fits within the new function. It adds an unneccessary hurdle to practicing the content. Regarding the practice, I feel like this module could really benefit from more regular practice that involves a breakdown explanation of what a function is actually doing, and then build that back up into where it can slot itself into various calculations. Beyond this, there seems to be a "session" date associated with the course, rather than end dates - this has resulted in being locked out of completing the course within a suited timeframe.

Very valuable information to learn. Too bad there were too many complications with doing the exercises and activities. Some of the files that were supposed to be used for the exercises and activities generated errors. So some of the exercises couldn't be completed. Also, there were instances where the files were good, but missing columns that were needed to complete the exercises. Also, there were some errors in the syntax for the DAX calculations in one of the exercises. All of these issues made it difficult to learn. But the one saving grace was the guided project where you follow along with a recorded video step by step to complete the tasks.

Data sets did not have the required information to complete the tasks. I was unable to get the SQL Server to work so I couldn't start some of the assignments. The videos and reading did not align well with the assessments which made them extremely difficult. This is heavily coding focused and not something I was too interested in although I can see the benefits if explained better. There should have been more information on the application and purposes of using Variables and Calculate. They seemed to skim over these details which did not build a strong foundation for later activities.

it wasnt very well structured and complex ideas were not explained in an easily understandable way. there are some mistakes in the quizes and it feels like the courses doesnt take in consideration that many peoples first language is not english, hence complex ideas are explained in a language specific way in a complex way. i had some quiestions if a real person has created the materials, because it gives off the feeling of pure AI involvement.

Quiz questions about aspects not covered in lessons, poor explanation of syntax and use cases, very few and limited scope examples of DAX, wrong downloadable files in exercises which made it impossible to follow the exercise instructions, impotent discussion forum (as of 08 Jan'24 0 posts and 0 replies by moderators). These are my observations from going through the first 2 weeks out of total 4 of the course. If you are reading this and considering enrolling, make sure you go through one-star and two-star ratings, the ones I read were accurate re problems in the course.

The modules in this course and other related courses are outdated, the exercise sample files are not correct and are missing data you need to complete the assignment. No one from Microsoft is monitoring the Discussion Forums. Learners have posted several questions in the forums, asking for help, reporting incorrect exercise files, reporting issues with course instructions, and no one is helping us. This is a waste of money and time.

Unfortunately, the course was a messy frustrating experience. MANY typos and errors in all of the materials. Incorrect answers on some quizzes and exams. Data files not matching what the instructions ask you do it. Quizzes and exams that don't align with the material that was taught and many questions that were simply designed to trick you instead of to test your knowledge.

The course is rushed, the explanations are too brief, the files are either not working, or not correct, the questions are too ambiguous. I needed to learn from different sources, this course is waste of time

Repetitive videos, incorrect files for most assessments and errors in questions of graded assignments. I wouldn't have completed this module if it weren't necessary for the overall certification.

Lot's of errors in the course. Wrong files. DAX part is very poorly explained. No exercises using DB connections, only excel. In real life most developers work with DBs.
