Common questions

What is Remote Training?

Remote training at Nexacu, means our team of experienced trainers will deliver your training virtually. With remote learning students can access our usual classroom training courses via video conferencing, ask questions, participate in discussion and share their screen with the trainer if they need help at any point in the course. Students have the same level of participation and access to the trainer as they would in classroom training sessions. 

Which courses are available remotely?

All of our Public Courses scheduled in across South East Asia and New Zealand are available to be delivered remotely. Book any course and you will receive login details to access our student portal. The Student portal contains all our your course information, instructions on getting set up for a remote class and free webinars.

What is Power BI?

Power BI is Microsoft's Data Visualization tool. The BI stands for Business Intelligence. Power BI enables users to connect with their data, cleanse it and build interactive dashboards to gain insights that drive actions. 

Will the content in these Power BI Courses be relevant for the workplace?

Yes, our course writers and trainers have industry backgrounds. Our core principle is to deliver training that our students can not only use in the workplace but will actually drive increased efficiency and productivity gains. We teach the key elements of Power BI from Beginner to Advanced; starting with a focus on visualizations and quickly progressing to data manipulation and modelling. We also offer a DAX course.

How many students are typically in a Power BI Training Course?

While this varies from session to session, we typically have 5-8 students in our Power BI classes. We cap our classes at 10 students. This is to ensure the quality of training remains high and that all students can ask questions and engage in discussion.
