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.
What can I say, you guys are great at what you do and in short this course is what is says on the can.I feel like I can Master DAX with more time and practice and the material covered allows me to know I can do it by understanding these areas as a foundation.
Very cool thanks

I've been using and learning DAX over the last three years. This course helped highlight the concepts I needed to advance my understanding over and above what I already knew of evaluation context and the subtleties of how the engine works. Thanks!!

Thank you very much for the amazing DAX Course!!!! : )

This is a fabulous course. I spent many hours with The Definitive Guide to DAX and still struggled to write the formulas I needed. Finally, I took this course. Marco and Alberto have built a course that takes you from the very basics and has you writing complex formulas by the end. The course is filled with real-world examples of calculations you can use. If you struggle at all with DAX, this course is well worth the investment.

SQLBI is the leading company in BI nowadays! The material provided and the expertise of Maestros Marco and Alberto are unmatched. After reading "The Definitive Guide do DAX" and attending the DAX Workshop in London, I have no doubt this is the best course available today. I'm also enjoying the new course Power BI Dashboard by SQLBI.

Highly Satisfied!

Excellent course!
Essential material if you want to learn what happens under the hood of Dax.
When you are using Dax and you are unable to explain the results you obtain in your pivot tables, this is the course to follow! Crystal clear explanations, very good exercise labs and discussion boards that are closely followed, whenever you have questions. The quality of the videos is of the highest standard and it is no coincidence that all users are giving the course a 5-star rating. If you are working with Dax, this course will teach you everything there is to know and then some more. Thank you Marco and Alberto, hope to see many more video courses from your team in the future!

Best Course Ever Taken !!!!
I have been a SQL Server BI learning machine for 20 years (at least.) I have watched countless video courses and this course is the BEST !!! Why do I say this? I say this for one reason, the more advanced concepts around DAX are very difficult to understand. It is much harder than any regular database/programming type subjects/courses I have taken. Microsoft, I believe made a mistake, stating that DAX was easy because it used many Excel functions. To really benefit from DAX you must go deep and clearly understand the concepts (otherwise everything just merges together into a nonspecific understanding), and this course finally explained and differentiated these DAX concepts in a way that clicked. In this course, Marco and Alberto filled in the gaps, with more extensive focus on these concepts. I am no stranger to difficult languages. I have been doing MDX for over 15 years and really like it. It also had a steep learning curve. I almost did not buy this course, because of earlier courses / books that were just not getting me there. I reluctantly purchased the course as a last ditch effort (I know DAX is critical to the future of BI), and I am so glad I did. Absolutely thrilled with this course. Thanks Alberto and Marco, Greg Coopman www.sqlcoop.com

The Best of the Best
Marco Russo and Alberto Ferrari are consummate and masterful teachers and presenters. The course materials are organized expertly with a gradual progression towards the more complex. While intellectually challenging, Marco and Alberto manage to keep your interest with applicable examples and explanations - and some humor mixed in.
Even though the course covers a vast space of DAX concepts, I would strongly recommend buying "The Definitive Guide to DAX" as a companion to the course and for further in-depth study.
Bravo to you both!

Master DAX from the Masters themselves!
This is the video equivalent of the Mastering DAX Workshop training. The DAX masters themselves, Alberto Ferrari and Marco Russo, teach the course together. It is very organized and well thought out. There are video lectures and an associated exercise workbook to reinforce the material. All the sample Excel files can be downloaded, along with the lecture slides. Video lectures are guided by the slides, and include demonstrations of the DAX concepts using PowerPivot. Questions can be posted and the authors will answer them!
Alberto and Marco provide in depth explanations and insights to the inner workings of DAX. They also give recommendations based upon their years of experience working with DAX. This is exactly what is needed to become a DAX master. I am extremely pleased with this video course. It offers tremendous value for the price and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to attain DAX Master status!

How can one train better DAX?
Amazing - in my view this team is unbeatable when it is about SSAS Tabular or DAX training.
I love the clear concept & perfect format of this DAX course. Alberto & Marco are pointing out each hurdle that may pop up by applying DAX formulas, supporting your learning curve with online samples discussed from different angles and great accompanying self-training material.

Fantastic!
I followed your 3-day course 2 months ago and this video course is a great reference guide! When the explanation is going too fast I can rewind :)
