DAX Formula Patterns

An outline of this training course

This training is completely focused on how to use DAX formulas within Power BI to solve simple up to very advanced analytical problems. By utilising the power of DAX, combined with the Power BI data model you can almost effortlessly write DAX formula that can solve even the most complex questions being asked of your raw data. To do this effectively you need to firstly understand the core DAX concepts and formulas. From here you can branch out into a number of re-usable patterns that can be overlaid on a variety of datasets. This course teaches you how to do exactly this with comprehensive examples on a considerable amount of analytical scenarios that you will face everyday in the real-world.
