FAQ

Which tools do you teach?

Principles transfer across Power BI, Tableau, and Looker. We do not certify tool vendors; if your need is pure DAX syntax, this is the wrong program.

Is there a real limitation I should know?

Yes: we do not rebuild your warehouse or fix broken source systems. Teams with unstable grain definitions will spend Module 2 documenting debt rather than polishing visuals — that can feel slow if you expected a design makeover.

Can a mixed seniority team join?

Yes. Pairing an analyst with a metric owner produces better contracts. Pure executive-only groups usually choose Boardroom Intensive instead.

Reviews from this course

Module 5’s critique renamed three of our tiles in one hour. The reservation: homework volume spikes mid-cohort if your data definitions are messy.

We finally stopped screenshotting twenty tabs for the CEO. The cadence kit from Module 6 is still on our wall.
