Practical Data Management and Reporting with Power BI is designed for public service professionals who want to elevate their data and reporting skills. It focuses on improving data quality, reducing risk, and introducing practical ways to integrate and analyse data using Power BI and structured data modelling techniques.
The one-day course takes a practical, hands-on approach, beginning with existing Excel-based workflows. Participants will learn when Excel should continue to be used as-is, and when Power BI is better suited to integrating multiple datasets, producing repeatable reports and visualisations, and supporting improved decision-making.
A key focus of the day is applying skills to real world data scenarios. Power BI sessions include guided practical exercises using training datasets, so participants can relate the learning directly to their own work.

The Professional Certificate in Governance is a one-year part-time programme that addresses a key area of concern to professionals in the public and private sectors.
The expectations and obligations on audit committees continue to evolve in response to governance developments and the need for Boards and governing bodies to demonstrate that they are adhering to relevant audit, assurance and risk management requirements.
Public bodies and many other organisations in receipt of public support must insure that their corporate governance frameworks are of a best practice standard and that they are in compliance with specified corporate governance codes.
