Training Overview

Training Overview

As businesses generate increasingly large volumes of data, the ability to transform this information into actionable insights has become a vital competitive advantage. Data mining and big data analytics provide organizations with the tools to uncover hidden patterns, predict future trends, and make informed decisions that drive growth and operational efficiency. This Power BI: Data Mining and Big Data Analytics training course is designed to equip professionals with the expertise needed to fully leverage the power of big data within Microsoft Power BI—one of the most user-friendly and robust tools for business intelligence and data analysis.

The course covers everything from importing and processing large datasets to applying advanced data mining techniques within Power BI. Participants will learn how to model and visualize complex data, identify key patterns and relationships, and integrate predictive analytics using AI features. With a strong emphasis on practical, real-world applications, this course is perfect for data analysts, business intelligence professionals, and decision-makers who aim to unlock insights from big data and apply them to drive strategic outcomes.

By the end of the course, attendees will have the skills to handle big data challenges, use advanced DAX functions for customized analytics, and design visually compelling dashboards that provide clear insights to inform decision-making. This training empowers participants not only to interpret large datasets but also to drive data-informed initiatives that turn data into a strategic asset.

This training course will feature:

  • Overview of data mining and big data analytics in today’s data-centric world
  • Understanding the role of Power BI in analyzing large datasets
  • Key objectives of the course and expected outcomes for participants

What are the goals?

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Equip participants with skills to process, visualize, and analyze large datasets using Power BI
  • Understand data mining techniques and how they can be applied in Power BI
  • Teach best practices for handling big data, from importing to transforming and visualizing
  • Enable participants to use advanced analytics features, including predictive analytics and clustering
  • Develop the ability to identify patterns, trends, and insights from large datasets

Who is this Training Course for?

This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

  • Data analysts, business intelligence professionals, and IT specialists interested in big data analysis
  • Business managers and decision-makers seeking to leverage big data insights for strategic planning
  • Professionals in marketing, finance, operations, and research fields aiming to apply data mining techniques

How will this Training Course be Presented?

This training course will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes theoretical presentation of the concepts, but the emphasis will be on the exercises performed by the delegates with the guidance of the instructor. The delegates will be “learning by doing” as the training course is designed for them to use the software on the real problems and real data applying each of the techniques themselves. Delivery will be by presentation, group syndicate investigations, training e-manual and interactive seminars, as well as group discussion on the results of the exercises.
