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.

It's a very well structured course that introduces the DAX language in a never boring, clear and precise way.

I’ve completed other courses that covered the basics of DAX but this has the best explanation of context transition that I have come across. I wish that I had taken this course first.

Very Good!! Congratulations!!

Excellent introduction into DAX. For future courses have the slide content more easily readable. Some of the slide contents and screen displays weren't fully displayed throughout some of the videos. I was able to obtain the full content by pausing & refreshing. The interaction was very important as it provided perspectives on various ways to do things in DAX.

Erst hatte ich Bedenken, ob ich dem englischen Vortrag werde folgen können. Das ging erstaunlich gut, und wenn es mal hakte, konnte ich den Teil ja mehrfach ansehen. Danke, jetzt habe ich endlich die Dax-Grundlagen verstanden.

would be possible to enable the legen in the videos? to the Portuguese for example ;-)
- – Romeu, currently the subtitles are available in English and Spanish. You can enable them clicking on the CC icon in the lower right corner of the video player. We will consider creating Portuguese subtitles in the future depending on requests. Thanks!

Do not miss this even if you have gone through "The definitive guide to DAX (book)". Different mediums of learning reinforce concepts even better.
