This two-day instructor-led course provides data professionals with the knowledge and practical skills required to use Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) within Microsoft Power BI. Learners explore how DAX enables advanced calculations, analytical modelling, time intelligence, filtering, ranking and hierarchical analysis to deliver meaningful business insights.

Through a combination of instructor-led learning and hands-on labs, participants gain practical experience creating calculated columns, measures and calculated tables; managing evaluation and filter context; building time intelligence solutions; and developing advanced analytical calculations using real-world business scenarios. By the end of the course, learners will be able to confidently design, build and maintain robust Power BI semantic models using DAX.
