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.

This was a great course! The content is clear and having access to the slides is very useful for practicing. Thank you so much for offering basic free courses, it really helps those of us who are not able to enroll in the other courses.

I think that it is a really dynamic course, very well explained that allows us to deeply understand the bases of this interesting programming language. The examples are vital to have a better comprehension of the topics and I really like it. I would strongly recommend this course. Thank you!

Simply amazing. I will for sure keep learning from Marco and Alberto.

Thank you! Very useful course with clear explanations. I am new to DAX and learned a lot! My only suggestion would be to slow down the actual code writing itself and speak to details as it gets written.

Gostei muito do treinamento e principalmente ter a opção de tradução simultânea, pois ajuda muito quem não tem facilidade na língua.

A very clear introduction to DAX that has allowed me to reinforce my knowledge in BI. Thank you.

Very solid course, overall. Although advertised as a beginner course, some parts of it were a bit complicated, especially a few formulas with time-intelligence. I felt it was better when just one of you was explaining, because occassionally, you'd start interrupting and talking over each other, which makes it harder to understand. Overall, great! Would definitely consider more of your courses.

Another great introduction. I have watched several introduction to Dax type video's but this is the first that really put the pieces together. AS per the data modelling introduction, the emphasis on theory makes the difference. Without that conceptual framework Dax seems magical at first but has the potential to become a nightmare to debug due all that Dax is doing 'behind' the scenes. Thx for the excellent introduction.

Amazing introduction. Easy to follow, engaging. I've learned quite some new things here

I've done 2 PBI courses before this one. One from Microsoft, on EdX, and another one in Udemy. What differs the most is the desire of the instructors for the student to understand the whys and what's really happening behind the scenes. Thanks for making this course free, it is ABSOLUTELY worth the time, since it helps understanding some key basic concepts and foundational concepts.
