<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This 3 full-day training course will introduce participants to the Microsoft Power BI<sup fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&reg;</sup>&nbsp;software solution for extracting, manipulating, visualising and analysing data. This is a very practical, hands-on course that takes participants through a series of exercises which help users understand the Power BI<sup fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&reg;</sup>&nbsp;environment, how to use the key areas of functionality, and how to apply the tools it contains to design and produce analyses of their own data.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The first two days focus on learning the key concepts and practising these using clean, simple datasets.&nbsp;The third day provides participants with the opportunity to apply what they&#39;ve learned to their own data. This makes the course far more relevant and meaningful for them, it allows our facilitator to help them structure their data models, queries and DAX formulas correctly, and it allows our facilitator to help them solve any additional problems that may arise but which were not covered as part of the standard the course. In addition, at the end of the day, each participant walks away with something of real, practical use for their job role. Many previous participants have remarked that they obtained the most value from the course during the third day because otherwise, they wouldn&#39;t be able to do what they need to do.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This is an introductory course and although it does not assume any prior experience with Power BI<sup fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&reg;</sup>, participants will gain much more from the course if they have at least used Power BI<sup fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&reg;</sup>&nbsp;a little prior to attending. Participants who have taught themselves Power BI<sup fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&reg;</sup>&nbsp;will also benefit from attending as the course will fill-in a number of gaps in their knowledge and will also extend what they know. A general understanding of databases, Excel formulas, and Excel Pivot Tables is useful though not essential. Comprehensive course notes, exercises and completed solutions are included.</p>

<h2><strong>About this Course</strong></h2>
<p>This 5 full-day course presents the most modern statistical and mathematical forecasting frameworks used by practitioners to tackle the load forecasting problem across short time and long time scales. The course presents practical applications to solving forecasting challenges, supported by real life examples from large control areas. It presents the weather impacts on the load forecasts and the methodologies employed to quantify the weather effect and building a repository of weather normal data.</p>
<p>A good load forecast methodology must improve its forecasting accuracy and support a consistent load forecasting process. The load forecasting widely used in the power industry has evolved significantly with the advancement and adoption of Artificial Intelligence techniques such as Machine Learning.</p>
<p>With the increased penetration of inverter-based resources, the operation of electric grids grew in complexity, leading to load forecasts that are updated more frequently than once a day. Furthermore, several jurisdictions adopted a smaller granularity than the hourly load forecasts in the effort to reduce the forecasting uncertainties.</p>
<p>On the generation side, fuel forecasting professionals must meet energy requirements while making allowance for the uncertainty on both the demand and the supply side.</p>
<p>This training course will also feature a guest speaker, who is a Ph.D candidate to provide insights into the most modern aspects of Artificial Intelligence in the context of load forecasting.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Sales is a numbers game, and you live and die by the numbers you achieve!</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Yet dealing with "numbers" is far removed from selling, or even managing salespeople, so many sales managers struggle with this side of the role.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">In this course, we show you the basics of forecasting, but it&#39;s not a technical paper or template - you can find these in many places.
<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"> We show you the basics of forecasting, and then show you how to apply your forecasts to practical issues, like setting realistic targets, reducing your stress levels, and using (and closely tracking) the right KPIs to smash your targets!</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course will show you how to set up and use your forecasts in a practical way, to make sure the numbers you hit are the best they can be.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course will take you through the steps you need to take control of the numbers that define the level of your success.</p>

<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">You&#39;ll start with how to <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">create your forecast</strong> and some of the most common methods used.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">You&#39;ll then learn about <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">setting realistic targets</strong> - so people are stretched and motivated at the same time.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The next lesson is an interesting one, where we show you how to use <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Range Forecasting</strong> to manage other people&#39;s expectations - and reduce your stress levels!</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Finally we get to the focus of day-to-day management: <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">using KPIs to smash your targets!</strong> You&#39;ll see how focusing hard on the right things will remove distractions, and boost results.</li>
</ul>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">At the end of this course, you&#39;ll know how to use the "numbers" side of your role to enhance the way you manage your team - and get the results you want.</p>

        <p>Prophet enables Python and R developers to build scalable time series forecasts. This course will help you implement Prophet's cutting-edge forecasting techniques to model future data with higher accuracy and with very few lines of code.

In this course, you will learn how to use Facebook Prophet to do time series analysis and forecasting. You will learn how the Prophet works under the hood (that is, what are its modeling assumptions?) and the Prophet API (that is, how to write the code).

This course is a practice-oriented course, demonstrating how to prepare your data for Prophet, fit a model, and use it to forecast, analyze the results, and evaluate the model's predictions. We will apply Prophet to a variety of datasets, including store sales and stock prices. You will learn how to use Prophet to plot the model's in-sample predictions and forecast. Then, learn how to plot the components of the fitted model. You will also learn how to deal with outliers, missing data, and non-daily (for example, monthly) data.

By the end of this course, you will be able to use Prophet confidently to forecast your data.</p>
