Power BI Training FAQs

What computer equipment and software do we need if we want to book an in-house Power BI training course?

To run their own in-house Power BI training, organisations will need to have either a dedicated training room or a meeting room which can be used for training. Each person attending the training will need to have a computer or laptop running Windows 7, 8 or 10. Each computer will need need have the latest version of Power BI installed. Power BI Desktop is free and can be downloaded from Microsoft’s website. Fast and reliable internet access will also be required, both for the staff attending the training and for our trainer.

What Power BI subscriptions do we need before we can run an in-house Power BI training course?

If you book on-site Power BI training from G Com Solutions, you do not need a Power BI subscription. During the course, your staff will be given access to a G Com’s Solutions Power BI training tenant. (A Power BI organizational subscription is referred to as a tenant; and each Power BI tenant can have an unlimited number of users.) We find that this arrangement works best, since it separates training assets from your live data.

Do you provide any certification for students completing your on-site courses?

We provide certificates of achievement to delegates completing our Power BI training. We can also provide private instructor-led Power BI certification training, designed to prepare your staff for the exam DA-100. Please note, however, that the actual exam needS to be booked separately, at an exam centre, and will cost each delegate approximately £130, plus VAT.

Do you supply courseware to support your Power BI training courses?

Every Power BI course that we deliver is supported by courseware, supplied in PDF format.
