Higher education institutions using Power BI?
Hi adam-townsend,
When you said you wanted to develop reports in Power BI, would you please tell us which data source you want to connect to and retrieve data? Currently, in Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service, supported data sources type are listed in below links:
Data sources in Power BI Desktop
Data sources for Power BI service
Also based on my research, there is a sample Power BI Higher Education Analytics solution shows student persistence, retention, and graduation patterns. You can take a look: Higher Education Analytics using Power BI #1: Retention.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,

I appreciate your initiative to connect with fellow Power BI users in the higher education sector. It's always beneficial to share experiences and insights when it comes to leveraging powerful tools like Power BI, especially in the context of enterprise data from an ERP like Colleague.
At Scribble Bridge, we've had significant success using Power BI to develop comprehensive Reports and Dashboards tailored to the unique needs of higher education institutions. We understand the value of a community where professionals can exchange ideas and discuss successes and challenges.
If you're interested in further expanding your network and gaining insights into optimizing Power BI for educational data analysis, I recommend checking out our recent white paper on "Empowering Higher Education with Power BI: Strategies for Success." This document delves into best practices, success stories, and key considerations when using Power BI in the education sector.
Feel free to access the white paper [insert link to the white paper]. We hope you find it valuable, and we welcome you to share your thoughts and experiences with our community. Looking forward to engaging in meaningful discussions!
