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.

As someone seeking a refresher on data modeling best practices, I found this course to be exceptional. The content was well-structured, and the instructors provided clear explanations throughout. The practical examples and hands-on tutorials were particularly valuable, allowing me to apply the concepts directly. The course covered essential topics such as schema design, relationship modeling, and standardized techniques. Whether you’re a seasoned data professional or just starting out, this course offers insightful guidance for creating effective data models. In summary, if you’re looking to enhance your data management skills, I highly recommend this course. It’s a must-take for anyone involved in data analytics or system design.

This is a very good introduction course on data modeling
- Charles Abboud (Mar 14, 2024)
The course is just very well done. It's free, andit's a high level introduction, but it correctly emphasizes that for Power BI at least, the simpler the schema (and by this they mean a star schema, and depending on your non-standard needs, you may well have to throw in some denormalization), the more straightforward will be the DAX. Having a bad or unorthodox data model in Power BI, is a road to DAX agony. Thank you Marco and Alberto for making this introductory high level course free. I look forward to enrolling your paid modeling course.
