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.

Coming from the Excel side, for me this intro was invaluable. Marco has put into words here much of what I had discovered intuitively in getting my dozens of PowerPivot (PP) models to work, over the years, and translated into BI assets to share- so special meaning to me; a real eye opener. This year I began a tech-immersion to really learn Power BI and serious DAX programming since I've had so much fun unleashing my creativity thorugh PP. I am putting this training to good use immediately normalizing the publicly available Medicare data I have begun to work with. I can see how it will help with simplify some complex ranking that I have been struggling with. Also, I will definitely seek more patterns to avoid reinvention. This was great in helping me on my journey - keep it up guys!

Very interesting and useful introduction to data modelling. Suggests good ways to think about transforming your data to allow straight-forward analysis, whether in Power BI or other analysis tools.
