Häufige Fragen (FAQ)

Welches Power BI Training passt zu mir?

Das hängt vor allem davon ab, wie viel Erfahrung du schon mitbringst und wie nah das Training an eurem aktuellen Projekt sein soll. Wir helfen dir dabei, zwischen Basics, Advanced und Applied Coaching das Format zu wählen, das für dein Team gerade am meisten bringt.

mehr lesen
Wenn du oder dein Team noch ohne Vorkenntnisse startet, ist Power BI Basics der richtige Einstieg. Wenn bereits erste Erfahrungen da sind und ihr tiefer in Analysen, Berichte und erweiterte Funktionen einsteigen wollt, passt Power BI Advanced. Und wenn der Fokus nicht nur auf Lernen, sondern direkt auf eurem konkreten Vorhaben liegt, ist Power BI Applied Coaching die sinnvollste Wahl. Dieses Format kombiniert Training mit zusätzlichen Coaching-Tagen und ist deshalb besonders dann stark, wenn ihr parallel ein echtes Power-BI-Projekt voranbringen wollt.

Brauche ich für das Training schon Vorkenntnisse?

Nicht unbedingt. Wir bieten mit Power BI Basics ausdrücklich ein Einsteiger-Training an und decken gleichzeitig auch Fortgeschrittenen-Niveau und projektbezogenes Coaching ab.

mehr lesen
Du musst nicht schon tief in Power BI drin sein, um sinnvoll starten zu können. Für Einsteigende gibt es ein eigenes Basics-Format, das Grundlagen vermittelt und Sicherheit im Umgang mit dem Tool aufbaut. Wenn dein Team schon weiter ist, geht es im Advanced-Training stärker um erweiterte Funktionen und komplexere Analysen. So müsst ihr euch nicht in ein Format zwängen, das weder zum Kenntnisstand noch zum Ziel passt. Entscheidend ist also weniger, ob du schon viel kannst, sondern ob das Training auf dem richtigen Niveau ansetzt.

Arbeitet ihr im Training auch mit unseren eigenen Daten und Use Cases?

Ja, genau das ist einer der stärksten Hebel unserer Power BI Trainings. Wir können das Training mit euren Daten und euren typischen Anwendungsfällen ausrichten, damit der Transfer in den Arbeitsalltag leichter fällt.

mehr lesen
Das Training ist nicht nur als allgemeine Tool-Schulung angelegt. Wir arbeiten auf Wunsch mit einer individuellen Agenda, eurem Projektfokus und den Daten und Use Cases, die für euren Alltag wirklich relevant sind. Dadurch lernt dein Team nicht an generischen Beispielen, sondern an Fragestellungen, die in eurem Arbeitskontext tatsächlich vorkommen. Das macht das Training besonders dann wertvoll, wenn ihr Power BI nicht nur kennenlernen, sondern gezielt für bestehende Reporting- oder Analyseanforderungen besser nutzen wollt.

Was lernt mein Team im Power BI Training konkret?

Dein Team lernt die zentralen Bausteine für sauberes Arbeiten mit Power BI: Daten vorbereiten, Datenmodelle aufbauen, mit DAX rechnen und Dashboards sinnvoll visualisieren.

mehr lesen
Inhaltlich ist das Training entlang der typischen Arbeitsschritte in Power BI aufgebaut. Dazu gehören die Anbindung und Transformation von Daten, die Arbeit im Power Query Editor, die Grundlagen von Datenmodellen und Beziehungen, erste und weiterführende DAX-Berechnungen sowie Visualisierungen, Diagrammtypen, Filter und Dashboard Design. Dadurch lernt dein Team nicht nur einzelne Funktionen kennen, sondern versteht auch, wie aus Rohdaten ein belastbares Reporting entsteht. Das ist wichtig, weil Power BI in der Praxis nicht an einer einzelnen Funktion scheitert, sondern oft am Zusammenspiel dieser Bausteine.

Ist das Training für mein Team auch als Inhouse- oder Remote-Format möglich?

Ja. Wir führen das Training remote, inhouse bei euch oder in unseren Schulungsräumen durch.

mehr lesen
Das Format ist bewusst so aufgebaut, dass es zu unterschiedlichen Teams und Rahmenbedingungen passt. Ihr könnt das Training remote, an eurem Standort oder in den Schulungsräumen in Köln und Stuttgart durchführen. Zusätzlich ist es als Gruppentraining angelegt und für Teams von bis zu 8 Personen oder mehr geeignet. Das ist vor allem dann hilfreich, wenn ihr nicht einzelne Personen schulen wollt, sondern gemeinsam ein einheitlicheres Arbeitsniveau im Team aufbauen möchtet.

Wann ist Applied Coaching sinnvoller als ein klassisches Training?

Applied Coaching ist dann sinnvoll, wenn ihr nicht nur Wissen aufbauen, sondern parallel an eurem konkreten Power-BI-Projekt arbeiten wollt. Es verbindet Training mit zusätzlichem Sparring und ist deshalb näher an echter Umsetzung.

mehr lesen
Ein klassisches Training ist stark, wenn ihr Power BI systematisch lernen oder bestehende Kenntnisse ausbauen wollt. Applied Coaching wird dann interessant, wenn ihr darüber hinaus echte Projektfragen klären müsst. Dieses Format ist als Kombination aus Training und zwei Coaching-Tagen zu sehen, mit Fokus auf Umsetzung eures Projekts, persönlichem Consultant und flexibel abrufbarem Sparring. Das ist vor allem dann sinnvoll, wenn ihr nicht nur besser mit Power BI arbeiten, sondern konkrete Herausforderungen schneller lösen wollt.
