Microsoft Power BI DAX

This is an advanced course for people who already have experience developing Power BI reports and want to develop their proficiency using DAX.

DAX allows us to enrich our data model and perform highly sophisticated data analysis, but there is some theory required to master DAX. In this course we delve into key concepts like evaluation context while also introducing best practise like the use of variables.

The course will also cover a wide range of DAX functions including Iterator, Table, Calculate and Calculate Modifier functions, Timeseries Intelligence and Hierarchy functions.
