What's the difference between Power BI and Excel?
Excel is primarily a spreadsheet tool for working with smaller-scale data, while Power BI is built for analyzing large volumes of data from multiple sources at once, with more advanced visualizations and interactive shared dashboards. Power BI also uses the DAX language for complex calculations that Excel can't handle to the same extent.

Which language interface (CZ/EN) is the course taught in? I have the English version of Power BI on my PC.
No problem — our trainers are fluent in both language variants of Power BI, and during demonstrations they always mention the function or button name in both languages, so you'll easily find your way around regardless of which version you have installed.

Do I need to know programming to use Power BI?
No, you don't need programming skills for basic work with Power BI. The Základy Power BI (Power BI Fundamentals) course is designed even for complete beginners with no prior experience — you'll learn to work with data and create tables, charts, and visuals entirely through the user interface. Programming skills come in handy only for more advanced analysis using the DAX language, which you'll be introduced to at a basic level.

What are visuals in Power BI?
Visuals are the graphical elements Power BI uses to display data — charts, tables, maps, gauges, or cards showing key figures. Each visual can be linked to specific data, filtered, and formatted, together forming a clear, interactive report or dashboard.
