This is a great course if you are new to how data is gathered, used, the ETL process, etc. However, I am 5 weeks into this program and there has been VERY little use of the Power BI application. Instead, the modules tell you the processes for data transformation, ETL, how data can help the business, etc, then tells you to use Power BI for these tasks. At the end of the week, there is an online document that has links to the Microsoft website for Power BI How To's that explain everything. I would be better off with a Power BI book. Better use of time and money.

This is more like a long series of promotional\commercial videos rather than practical tutorial. Instructed by different persons, the course lacks integrity and they go back and forth between different topics and repeat a lot of things multiple times. Some parts are tooo much basic and some parts are too advanced. A much shorter course in Udemy was much more helpful for me.

Two courses in (out of eight) and I have serious doubts this is going to actually help me at all for the Microsoft certification exam... The content and the format so far are rather disappointing. Thinking of pursuing the (free) self-study option on the Microsoft Learn site instead.

It was confusing that we didn't substantially use PowerBI at all in this course, but instead worked on data preparation and review in Excel. I wouldn't have taken the course if I knew there was very little focus on practical use of PowerBI

The course was far too basic and did not meet my expectations at all. The name is misleading, as it does not cover any topics related to Power BI. Instead, the content kept repeating the same old Excel and data fundamentals throughout all three modules. If you're looking to learn about Power BI, this course is definitely not for you. Save your time and look for a course that actually delivers on its promises.

They have mentioned they will provide 50% discount code to take PL-300 exam in the course. But i am following up with them regarding it. No body helped. I don't understand why they have mentioned if their intention is something different. They are fooling people

You cannot make a PowerBI service account without a school or work email address. This restraint is unfair and should have been clearly stated from the very beginning so that people like myself do not waste our time with the first module.
