Working with modern Business Intelligence tools is exciting. Although the market offers a broad variety of tools, you may not have found the tool that meets all your requirements yet. This course might change that!

In this course, you will learn how to use one of the latest Business Intelligence tools released to the market: Amazon QuickSight, a tool which allows you to easily analyze and visualize data. But what makes QuickSight special? QuickSight is a cloud solution and completely integrated into Amazon Web Services (AWS). With that, it can be easily connected to a broad variety of services and sources which make QuickSight a highly scalable, easy-to-use and very flexible data analysis tool.

This course will give you a first overview of QuickSight including the following topics:

  • How to use QuickSight and its different functions
  • Understand the workflow of QuickSight
  • How to connect QuickSight to different data sources within and outside of AWS
  • How to prepare your data in QuickSight, for example by adding filters and calculated fields
  • How to easily create your analysis by building multiple visuals
  • How to create dashboards and stories
  • Share your project results with people within and outside your organization
  • How to use the iOS mobile app
  • Understand the user management of QuickSight
  • And more!


These topics will be covered throughout this course, but is this your course?

If you...

  • ... never worked with QuickSight and want to get started with it

So far I have learned a lot and looking forward to implementing what I have learned on my data. The instructors did a great job of walking you through the application and pointing out key points that could get you stuck.

Very easy to get started, I have taken many Max courses and just like Max, Manu is also a brilliant teacher🙌. To be honest, I don't know why but I didn't even felt a difference. Both guys teaching style is so similar to each other

Having worked as a business analyst in both a major consultancy and an investment bank, I always found myself confronted with both various and complex problem sets and challenging client demands. The rapid development of technology and business requirements forces everyone to constantly adapt and to continue learning.

Since I always found it hard to find high quality, understandable and comprehensive learning materials, I decided to create such materials on my own. Together with Maximilian Schwarzmüller I founded Academind to offer the best possible learning experience on web development and data science to our more than 1,000,000 students worldwide.
