Introduction to Data Modeling for Power BI Video Course
Introduction to Data Modeling for Power BI is an introductory video course about data modeling, which is a required skill to get the best out of Power BI, Power Pivot for Excel, and Analysis Services. The training is aimed at users that do not have a background knowledge in data modeling for analytical systems and reporting.
The goal of the course is introduce the primary concepts of dimensional modeling, using practical examples and demos to illustrate how to obtain the desired result without having to write complex DAX expressions. Creating a proper data model simplifies the code to write and improves the performance. The course is made of 100 minutes of lectures. You can watch the videos at any time and the system will keep track of your advances. Within the course you can download the slides and the Power BI files used in the demos.

This introductory course is well laid out and clearly explained by Marco with the help of Alberto. Even though the concepts are explained using Power BI, they are applicable when working with data models in any relational database. This is a great course, and highly recommended to anybody who wants to learn data modeling fundamentals.

Hi, I have purchased the Definitive Guide to DAX and still readd over and over, Im slowly getting to be a DAX pro but not a master just yet. Thanks for your helpful courses and video. If I could afford them all I would take them right away, Mike Mitchell https://powerbirep.com/

Another excellent course from sqlbi: useful themes and cases very well explained. *.pbix cases and support slides very helpful for "after lesson" study and exercises.

Easy and clear explanation about Data modelling in a very short time.

it was good introduction course on data modeling, which covered key concepts such as granularity, centralized and decentralized data, and the star schema. The course provided in-depth training on building relationships between different data elements, equipping me with the skills to design efficient and scalable data models. Through practical exercises and real-world examples, I gained a solid understanding of how to structure data to enhance accessibility and performance in various analytical scenarios.

Although you name the course as an "Introduction", I haven't seen this course's content in a bunch of other related courses I've been taking for a while. Congratulations and thank you for allowing me to take this course for free. I am considering to take Alberto's advice and buy a book instead of taking yet another course on this subject. Best regards.
