Instructor: Okay, one more quick lesson

to round out this section.

Just want to take a minute and share some helpful resources

that will be great to keep in your back pocket

if you get stuck

or need a little extra support along the way.

Now, first and foremost,

you'll find some great help options

right inside of Power BI.

You'll find them inside of the help menu.

Here, you're gonna see some documentation,

you've got links

to training videos, sample files, templates,

and links to some of Microsoft's blogs and communities.

Some other favorite resources.

Microsoft has a Power BI blog

at powerbi.microsoft.com/blog.

That's where they publish a lot of their monthly summaries

and feature releases.

We'll talk about that in just a second.

YouTube can be a great option

if you need to find a very specific tip or tutorial.

Microsoft has their own Power BI YouTube channel

where they publish demos and feature summaries

and some advanced stuff as well.

And another one of our favorite channels

is called Guy in a Cube.

They do some really cool tutorials

about data modeling and DAX,

definitely worth checking out.

Last but not least, you've got Power BI user groups.

These are communities of users,

including both local, in-person meetups

and helpful online forums,

which you can find at pbiusergroup.com.

Now, we've talked about monthly updates quite a bit

and how as you're using Power BI,

you're likely to notice ongoing changes

to things like settings and options and tools

pretty much every single month.

So, what we've done is included a list of links here

where you can stay up to date

on the latest product updates and feature releases.

So, you may need to type these into the browser

but go ahead and do that.

Bookmark these links.

This is where you're gonna see the full detailed summaries

of all these new feature releases,

including video walkthroughs of the new tools

which is super helpful.

So, there are separate links for Power BI Desktop,

Power BI Service, and Power Platform here.

Definitely handy to keep in your back pocket

to stay up to speed with these monthly updates.

All right, so that wraps up

all of the high-level, conceptual, introductory stuff.

Now, it's finally the time you've been waiting for.

Let's roll up our sleeves.

Let's get our hands dirty.

Let's jump into Power BI

and actually start building this project.

So next up,

Aaron's gonna take it for the next section

and he's gonna talk all about how to connect

and shape data with Power Query.

It's gonna be a lot of fun.

Get ready to dig in.
