Power BI training for people whose job isn't Power BI.

Learn how Power BI works, and how to start working with AI agents on it.

If you build the reports because someone has to, you're who I teach. I explain how Power BI fits together and why it works the way it does, so you can get back to your actual job and worry about Power BI less. If you've already built a report, I can also show you how to start working with an AI agent: a tool that reads a report's files, makes the changes you ask for and shows you what it did.

Understanding that lasts

You see what each part is for before you learn how it works. In Power BI fundamentals, you build a report from an Excel table before anything else, so everything that follows has a purpose you've already seen.

I'm teaching towards the moment someone says, "Oh, I get it. I always did that, but I never knew why it worked." That's the understanding you take back to your desk.

Bring your questions. I write and teach every course myself, so when a question leads down a useful rabbit hole, I can follow it and still bring you back to the course.

“The way you broke down complex concepts really helped clarify a lot of things.”

Performance support officer, a local authority

I'm Alan Harman-Box. burningsuit was my parents' Power BI training business. My mum, Alison, said it was for "everyone else". She and my dad, Stuart, have retired now and handed it on to me. It's still for everyone else.

More about me

Help with your own reporting

If everything depends on the one person who understands the reports, or two reports give different answers to the same question, I can help. I work alongside your team on your own reports and models, so they understand what we build, can change it and know what will happen when they do.
