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.

Great Introduction, I really enjoyed it. I did have to rearrange the layout of the tables in the practice files, as I found it easier to grasp the filter flows with the dimension tables arranged at the top and the fact tables positioned underneath.

Excelente curso introductorio, que nos enseña lo principal, el correcto y óptimo modelado de datos en PowerBI, con sugerencias desde trabajar los datos en la fuente misma de los datos, SQL, por ejemplo, o bien pasando por M, y en última instancia por DAX ; terminando así con correctos cálculos y adecuada visualización de los datos.

I love the video player UI's ability to change speed. I just wish the setting would stay when the next video is played automatically instead of resetting back to normal.
