At Arbor, we know that analysing your school data can be tricky. To ensure our schools/MATs get all the support they need to start using Microsoft Power BI effectively to visualise their Arbor data, we have created a consultative approach to training.
Power BI training at Arbor is carried out by our Customer Education Specialists who have access to Microsoft Power BI and have knowledge of the datasets offered by the Power BI Connector.
The approach for schools and MATs wanting to engage with the service is the same, but due to the amount of data being processed, more hours are needed for MAT training. To find out more, please take at look at the information about some of these services below.
To book your Power BI Consultation or to discuss how this would benefit your school/MAT, please contact us via customersales@arbor-education.com.
All Power BI sessions start with a 1 hour consultation.
The aim of the Consultation is for the school/MAT and a Customer Education Specialist to agree on the best approach to setting up and using reports on Microsoft Power BI.
This session will consist of an online course that includes a demo of what is possible on Microsoft Power BI and a 1 hour live session with a Customer Education Specialist.
This will include:
- A questionnaire to complete with your Customer Education Specialist;
- An example report similar to what your setting would like to build. Please note: It is advised to bring your setting's branding policy and colour codes to help get the look of the report right for you.
You must have Arbor's Power BI Connector and a Microsoft Power BI Pro Licence to book this session.
Once you have completed your Consultation, the next step is to have your setup training to learn how to create / amend the reports or report templates discussed in your consultation.
The length of time for this training will vary depending on your school's or MAT's needs.
Schools will book a 2 hour setup session and can purchase additional hours if they would like to explore more reports / dashboards.
MATs will book a 2 hour setup session to start and will have a further 3 hours setup due to the complexities and size of the data that is being used.
The aim of the setup training is to go through how to create your report or understand how to load a template and modify it to your needs. During your training we will explore the following areas:
- Check your Power Bi Settings
- How to load a template
- How to connect your data to Power Bi
- How to transform your data
- How to model your data
- How to create your report
- How to publish and share your report / dashboard
