Introducing DAX Video Course
This is an introductory video course about the DAX language. 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 move the first steps with DAX.
The goal is to teach the DAX language using Power BI for all the examples. You can download the initial Power BI Desktop file used in the demos and repeat all the steps shown in the videos. The same concepts can be used also on Power Pivot and on Analysis Services Tabular. The course is made of 150 minutes of lectures. You can watch the videos at anytime and the system will keep track of your advances. Within the course you can download the slides and the initial Power BI file used in the demos.

Very Very Good Introduction, really the explanation is coming from deep understanding of the subject.

Excellent!!

This was very useful, especially the explanation of the different contexts and how Calculate can change them. The only thing that didn't work for me in the model, is that I don't have the 'Sort by column' button where it shows in the video. I am not sure why, I used the model that was provided, but PowerBI desktop might have moved it since 2017 :(
- – Yes, the user interface of Power BI Desktop changes often, they moved that feature several times and it will probably change again in the future!
The Sort By Column is currently (November 2020) in the Ribbon "Column tools" that dynamically appears when you select a column in the Field pane.

Very great course. I especially loved how the concepts have been introduced steps by steps in a logical manner to finally reach the hardest ones and build a strong foundation to learn and practice DAX

I am feeling very lucky to watch this course as you have explained each and everything from basics. I did not find such a wonderful course anywhere for power bi. God bless you both for doing great work.
