Introducing DAX Video Course
This is an introductory video course about the DAX language. DAX is the native language of Power BI, Power Pivot for Excel, and SSAS Tabular models in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services. The training is aimed at users of Power BI, Power Pivot for Excel, and at Analysis Services developers that want to move the first steps with DAX.
The goal is to teach the DAX language using Power BI for all the examples. You can download the initial Power BI Desktop file used in the demos and repeat all the steps shown in the videos. The same concepts can be used also on Power Pivot and on Analysis Services Tabular. The course is made of 150 minutes of lectures. You can watch the videos at anytime and the system will keep track of your advances. Within the course you can download the slides and the initial Power BI file used in the demos.

Nice training. it has been helping me understanding better the DAX basics.

Thank you for putting this together. Marco was doing a fine job explaining. However when I got to the part (in Calculated Columns) and an off camera audio starts to argue / debate with Marco, I quit. Totally jarring and unprofessional. Sorry, but that is not how video presentations are made. Example, watch the news. You will NEVER hear the broadcast manager yelling off camera to the news anchor. There is a reason for that. It's crap. Pick the talking head. Stick with it. You will do fine. Sorry guys. Love your books. I don't like your videos.

Excellent. I've been working with Power BI and DAX for many years, so while nothing was new in this introductory course, it provided a lot of insight into the way that the functions, filters and joins are working. That insight will make it much easier and quicker to write code with these simple functions in the future. Also the staging of the instruction was much more valuable than searching the web for videos on the use of a single function. This course was presented in a stepped manner, where later material built naturally on learnings from previous videos. I will definitely pay to take the Mastering and Optimizing DAX courses now that I've seen the quality of the material.

this is a very wonderful course and you guys did justice in touching areas that might be of confusion

Fantastic course. I was (and remain) ambivalent about using a lot of DAX (proprietary and prone to overuse) in my solutions. This course singularly helped break some myths I held, I immediately ordered Russo+Ferrari's 2 DAX books and I am looking forward to diving into them. The concept of 'table functions' and 'evaluation context' should be required mastery for anyone presenting themselves as a Power BI expert.

The best course I've ever seen. Brilliant examples and teachers. Thank you very much!

Very well done!

Thank you, it was very interesting and useful to study your course :)

This gives you a very strong foundation for the DAX and when comes to applicability, this knowledge gives you more sense of meaning for the formulas you use. I am here after working on DAX for a while, now when I look back on the work I did, it gives me more broader understanding of what I did. This is a must knowledge who is working on visualisation projects
