Overview

The Power BI & Business Intelligence Internship is a self-paced virtual internship for learners who want practical, structured experience in turning raw business data into clear, decision-ready reports. You will work through four modules that follow the same path a BI analyst takes on a real reporting task: understanding the business question, preparing the data, building a reliable model and presenting the results.

Each module combines concise study notes with worked examples so you can practise in Power BI Desktop at your own pace. You will learn how to clean and shape data in Power Query, design star-schema data models with correct relationships, write DAX measures for common business calculations such as year-to-date totals and percentage of total, and build interactive report pages that use filters, slicers and drill-through effectively.

Progress is measured through a timed online multiple-choice exam at the end of every module. After completing all four modules you will work on a capstone project brief that asks you to build a complete sales performance dashboard. Learners who meet the exam criteria receive a QR-verifiable internship certificate showing the internship period, and the capstone gives you a portfolio piece you can show to others.

  • Business intelligence concepts, KPIs and the Power BI ecosystem
  • Data import, cleaning and transformation with Power Query
