Dear PMI friends, I am working on a new PMIS in SharePoint, using Power BI. Just learning Power BI and would love to get your thoughts on the usefulness of this application in your workplace or experience, and if you would recommend it or any training materials to go with it. Thanks in advance, and I hope you are all safe out there.

Hello Joshua,

As my back ground is IT/Data Science and I took a full track (of data science =MPP)
It was a great course among the 10 courses of the track, It always help me for generating reports from heterogeneous sources (structure and unstructured) .
( It is MS product which generated of 4 series versions of MS EXCEL).

The most advantages of it, sharing reports/dashboard via clouding and receive them based on desktop/Mobile.
It is worth to learn it specially you are working with (PMIS repository).

BR,

Very gracious response. Thanks for the information, Mansour! I checked online and looks as if this program may have expired (https://academy.microsoft.com/en-us/professional-program/). Have you heard of its replacement, and how best to learn a Microsoft-based PMIS? Thank you sir.

Anytime we can manipulate and visualize a data source into consumable, meaningful, and digestible graphics is a significant value add; both team and organizationally. This provides transparency and insights for data-driven decision making, otherwise lost or unexposed.

A benefit from P-BI is it is part of the Microsoft ecosystem. So if a MS stack shop already, you have integrations with other capabilities
