Introducing DAX Video Course

This is an introductory video course about the DAX language. DAX is the native language of Power BI, Analysis Services, Power Pivot for Excel. The training is aimed at users of Power BI, Excel, and at Fabric and 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 semantic models in Fabric, on Power Pivot and on Analysis Services.

The course is made of 84 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 initial Power BI file used in the demos.
