Unlike the usual short courses where participants learn skills and concepts from the course, the proposed project-focused course seeks to offer project-solution training complemented with classroom training in Visual analytics using Power BI coupled with Data Wrangling. Participants will be guided to establish a suitably scoped data visualisation project and will be guided on undertaking solution steps, in the project. The training will provide step by step guide on applying the Microsoft Power BI & Excel skills and concepts to realise successful visualization of the data studied.
