This is the video course version of the Mastering DAX workshop. 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 learn and master the DAX language.
The goal of the course is to teach all the features of DAX, providing the knowledge to write formulas for common and advanced business scenarios. The video course is made up of over 15 hours of lectures, plus another 15-20 hours of individual exercises. You can watch the videos at anytime and the system will keep track of your progress. Within the course you can download the material for all the exercises.
Students have access to a private discussion area where they can interact with the instructors asking questions related to the lectures and the exercises.
I am a business consultant that in the past 2 years transitioned from conventional data analytics tools (a.k.a "excel") to more sophisticated data analytics and data science engines. I had been looking for a long time for a comprehensive course on DAX and PowerBI, that covered enough theory to consider myself a DAX developer, and feel comfortable writing complex code in DAX for more sophisticated business applications.
I am very happy to say that THIS IS THE COURSE. It is the perfect balance between a pragmatic and a theoretical approach. It has helped me skill-up to the next level in DAX and I found it to be the best course available in the market. Other training programs are too "generic", they cover only the basics and leave a lot of loopholes. They try to get you something “fast” and “simple” so you can apply PowerBI right away, but such courses don’t make you a DAX expert, just a superficial analyst. This course is the only one that again, really skills you up to the next level to consider yourself a true DAX coder. Cant wait to take the Optimizing DAX course!
Congratulations to Alberto and Marco, I am your #1 FAN.

This was the best course I have ever followed and not only with regards to Business Intelligence. Congratulations to all the SQLBI staff

I have just completed 50% of the course, and honestly I can understand the mechanics of DAX, this is not an beginner course for sure, but it will take your DAX knowledge to the next level. Can't wait to start on reading the book - 'Definitive Guide to DAX - 2nd Edition' after completing this.
I have just a suggestion, if new exercises are added constantly modelled after real life business problems, the course would have warranted 6 stars. But the included examples are tough and in depth to test you knowledge of DAX.
Bow down to DAX wizards, Marco Russo and Alberto Ferrari!!

Best DAX course, period. The Maestros way of teaching DAX is elegant, sharp, with a deep understanding of use cases and engine logic, and truly business-oriented. In other words: pure Business Intelligence.

Great course for Learning DAX! A true Gem!
David Williams(May 26, 2020)
The most valuable training course I have experienced - including my graduate courses in college! The exercises tasked my understanding of the material, not my ability to regurgitate the examples. Highly recommended for any professional who wants to provide value to their clients.

Great course! DAX is so powerful. Marco and Alberto just simply DAX experts! Thanks!
Dramane Bio SALIFOU(May 17, 2020)
Great course ! This course deserves to read more and more as DAX coding reference and to be recommending to all the Power BI learner.
Thank you so much for your teaching.

I think it's been a good course, and that Marco and Alberto do a great job explaining DAX. I'm still not fluent, but feel slightly better equipped to go forward.

The courses are indeed the masterpiece and excellent but, please fix the site.
Its very slow and works poorly if the internet speed is little low.
Fix the site please, this is the only demerit I find and that's why rating this 4 star but, again the courses are excellent and so as the instructors.
– Please, can you provide more details about your issues?
Most of the time that a user experiences a problem with the videos, it is because of a firewall or an antivirus that slows down the connection.
You can lower the resolution of the video to reduce bandwidth consumption if your internet connection is slow.
If you experienced other issues, please clarify so we can investigate.
