About the Course

Usually, tidy data is a mirage in a real-world setting. Additionally, before quality analysis can be done, data need to be in a proper format. This project-based course, "Prepare, Clean, Transform, and Load Data using Power BI" is for beginner and intermediate Power BI users willing to advance their knowledge and skills. In this course, you will learn practical ways for data cleaning and transformation using Power BI. We will talk about different data cleaning and transformation tasks like splitting, renaming, adding, removing columns. By the end of this 2-hour-long project, you will change data types, merge and append data sets. By extension, you will learn how to import data from the web and unpivot data. This project-based course is a beginner to an intermediate-level course in Power BI. Therefore, to get the most of this project, it is essential to have a basic understanding of using a computer before you take this project....

This is a great short project to get hands on power bi. One must take it to learn the basics of cleaning and transforming data. A beginner must grab this opportunity to understand the basics.

The setp by step guide is easy to understand. but I reckon it can be more comprehensive.

It looks like many important features required for pre loading are still not yet covered. Even for the transform function, traverse, or rows change is not covered.

Also the test said the answer for transofrm should be rename, edited, etx...but not split? but there is split column funtion from Transform tape??

Actually many considerations about importing and fixing the databases for later usage are more essentially needed, I would wish to have more coverage for those coverage.

Instructor doesn't seem to be an expert in the field. The reason for unpivoting data in the example given didn't make sense.

Easy to follow and learn. Power BI desktop not required but up to individual, a current updated Microsoft Excel is good enough. This course does provide virtual Power BI desktop.

Learning using real-world examples makes it lively and fun.

Great course. Pretty much the basics that are good to know. The instructor is great and to the point. May be a little tricky for some initially but you get used to the accent as well over time. In general, a great guy and excelent delivery!

There were just some troubles with the content but the learning experience, in general, does not get affected. Great course!

I'm not the least inclined to complete this course, solely because the format is near impossible to work with on a 14 inch screen. Split screen on a small screen has made it rather difficult for me to work efficiently, and making errors while going through the course has resulted in me having to start over a couple of times. Not worth it. A Follow Along link via YouTube would have made more sense.

I believe the instructor was quite clear and precise. I found the videos brief and straight to the point and I also appreciate the creativity of both Coursera and the instructor to make available an online access to the Power BI application and the implementation of a split screen for better view and performance. This feature was quite handy especially for those who do not yet have the Power BI application on their devices.

The lecturer's accent is quite hard to understand, maybe because I'm used to the America accent. However, if you focus on the lesson and follow the instructions on screen, you can easily take the lecture. This course i think will draw first impressions about Power BI for you, which means you have to take another advanced Power BI course to take deep insights.

I highly recommend taking this short hands-on project to better understand how to work with data. I am currently doing the Data Analyst course and this helped me to better understand the work and gave me the confidence to use PowerBI as a tool.

Very useful introduction for users somewhat familiar with MS PowerBI. Guides users in using the PowerQuery Editor and useful features to clean you data before visualization. Instructor was knowledgeable and engaging.
