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.

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.

A Must Do! Its a great course even for someone doing data modelling for years. The fundamental concepts have been so clearly explained. Just set the video playback speed to 2x and finish it in your lunch break! AMAZING! Thank you so much guys!

Good Initiative, but I´ve expected in this course an example for normalization from a denormalized table in excel. It´s a very common situation that we face... Many thanks for this free video. Your classes are becoming even better like Italian wine!!!!

These courses that Marco and Alberto makes has high value, and I can definitely see the value of paying for the complete course after having watched this. Very good tutoring skills and good use of practical examples to ease the understanding.

I am a beginner and this is what I needed to kick off my data modelling journey. Great explanation supported by good examples in a very pleasant narrative. Simply 5 stars!

I have followed SQLBI since 2015 and got a lot of good experience from Alberto and Marco. For me it solved a lot of how to think when it comes to what should be done in SQL, Power Query and/or DAX, and especially, what are the pros and cons in different situations. The course is a very good introduction to data modeling using Power BI.

Sois muy grandes !!!!!!!!!ª

I read "The Definitive Guide to DAX", "Analyzing Data with Power BI and Power Pivot for Excel", attended "Mastering DAX Workshop" with Alberto, "Mastering DAX Videocourse", and the full "Data Modeling for Power BI". All content produced by SQLBI is excellent. I did this intro course as a recap and still learned new insights! Keep up the good work Maestros!

This introduction course was really giving fundamental but very important to know those who are working with report creation through power query , data modelling and Power BI. Thank you for providing such a introductory video course on free . We are really looking into learn more on this as we are moving with out report creations and Analytics.
