About This Learning Path

This learning path takes you from creating your first Power BI dashboard to building polished, decision‑ready reports for real business scenarios. You’ll learn how to connect data, shape it in the Query Editor, and design visualizations that communicate the right message. As you progress, you’ll apply best practices for dashboard layout, KPI selection, and mobile views so executives and teams can act quickly. You’ll deepen your analytics by learning DAX, from core measures to advanced concepts such as time intelligence and context transition. You’ll then assemble everything in a case study that mirrors the needs of a SaaS business, including cohort and churn analysis, ARPU, and MRR decomposition. Finally, you’ll create real‑time dashboards that surface delays and exceptions the moment they occur. Throughout, Kubicle’s applied learning model keeps you focused on hands‑on skills with projects and guided steps, so you can deliver dashboards that are accurate, fast, and easy to maintain for stakeholders across finance, operations, and strategy.
