Are you confused when to use Excel, PowerPivot, Report Builder, Report Designer, Dashboard Designer, or Power View? Take a lap around them and get back to Office with the knowledge which of these tools fits the best to your end-users.
Are you confused by the fact, that there is not one End-User Tool for BI, but there are many from Microsoft? In spite of the fact that Microsoft decided in 2009 not to build further reporting-tools (but to consolidate the actual portfolio instead) a whole bunch of tools are available and are leading to some confusion through the users: Excel, PowerPivot, Report Builder & Report Designer (Reporting Services), Dashboard Designer (PerformancePoint Services) and Power View. You will take a lap around all of these tools and you will learn when to use which. In this demo-heavy course, the very same report will be built with each of these tools so you can see the strengths and weaknesses of each of them with your own eyes. After finishing the modules, you will be armed with the knowledge to decide which of the tools fits your end-users the best.
