#PBIBRUM November meetup with Ashley Warren & Juliana Smith

Two full sessions from Birmingham's Power BI community, hosted at Robert Walters' offices on the 9th floor of 11 Brindley Place. Ashley Warren takes the this-report-is-slow problem apart: finding and fixing unoptimised semantic models using DAX Studio and Tabular Editor, Best Practice Analyser, VertiPAQ Analyser and DAX traces, working through badly performing examples and redesigning them. Juliana Smith then covers WCAG compliance in Power BI, applying the POUR principles, using keyboard navigation, screen-reader support and alt text, and structuring reports so they survive an accessibility audit. Doors 17:45, intros 18:00, first session 18:15, free pizza and drinks 18:50, second session 19:10, finish 20:00. Free. Why go: two intermediate-level, demo-heavy sessions with takeaways you can apply the next morning, which is rarer than it should be. Best for Power BI developers and analysts, and for anyone who owns reporting that has to be accessible.
