FAQ

Common questions about this program.

Do I need Power BI or Tableau experience before starting?
No, this program assumes you have basic SQL and Excel knowledge but no BI tool experience. Module 3 teaches both Power BI and Tableau from the ground up. We recommend completing a SQL fundamentals course if you are not confident with queries.
Will I build a real portfolio project during this training?
Yes. The capstone project in Module 5 requires you to design and build a complete BI solution from data source to interactive dashboard. You'll use real-world datasets and can showcase this project to employers or clients immediately after completion.
How much time per week should I dedicate to live labs and exercises?
Expect 8-12 hours per week including instructor-led sessions, hands-on labs, and independent practice. Labs are scheduled during live sessions so you can ask questions, and recordings are available for async review. Most working professionals complete the program in 10 weeks.
What tools and licenses do I need to purchase for this course?
We provide free or trial versions for Power BI Desktop and Tableau Public during the program. SQL training uses cloud-based sandbox environments at no cost. You will not need to purchase any software to complete the program.
