About this course
Are you ready to unlock the true analytical potential of your data? While basic drag-and-drop features are helpful, the real analytical power emerges when you understand Data Analysis Expressions (DAX). This course takes you step-by-step through the process of writing DAX formulas, starting from foundational syntax and moving toward building a functional financial dashboard. You will move beyond simple aggregations to understand context, time intelligence, and modern calculation patterns that make your reports dynamic and highly responsive. What you'll learn: • Understand the fundamental differences between calculated columns and measures. • Master evaluation contexts (row and filter context) to write accurate, predictable formulas. • Apply time intelligence functions to analyze financial growth, year-over-year trends, and metrics. • Implement modern DAX best practices, including using variables (VAR) for cleaner, optimized code. • Explore calculation groups to reduce measure sprawl and simplify report maintenance. • Build a comprehensive financial reporting structure through guided written exercises. The curriculum begins with essential terminology and basic DAX syntax before progressing into practical dashboard development. You will read through clear explanations and apply your knowledge using provided code snippets and structured text-based scenarios. This course is designed for complete beginners to DAX and aspiring data analysts—no prior coding experience or advanced math is required. Start your journey into data analysis today and transform raw numbers into meaningful financial insights.

Наконец-то разобралась с контекстом фильтров и контекстом строк в DAX — примеры на финансовом дашборде сразу показывают, зачем это нужно.
DAXの評価コンテキストがやっと理解できた。
Ho seguito diversi corsi su Power BI ma questo è il primo che spiega davvero bene il concetto di contesto di valutazione in DAX, non solo la sintassi delle formule. Costruire passo passo una dashboard finanziaria vera aiuta moltissimo a capire perché una misura si comporta in un certo modo con CALCULATE o ALL. Il ritmo delle lezioni è giusto, né troppo lento né frettoloso, e ogni esempio si collega al progetto finale. Ho apprezzato particolarmente la parte sulle funzioni di time intelligence applicate ai dati finanziari, con anno su anno e medie mobili. Alla fine del corso mi sono ritrovata con una dashboard funzionante e, soprattutto, con la capacità di modificarla da sola. Consiglio di prendere appunti mentre si segue perché i concetti si accumulano in fretta.
Llevaba tiempo evitando DAX porque me parecía intimidante, pero este curso lo desglosa de forma muy clara usando un caso financiero real. Las explicaciones sobre contexto de evaluación fueron justo lo que necesitaba para entender por qué mis medidas daban resultados raros. Ahora puedo construir un dashboard financiero completo sin copiar fórmulas a ciegas.
फाइनेंशियल डैशबोर्ड के असली उदाहरण से DAX की evaluation context आखिरकार समझ में आ गई।
I've tried to learn DAX from documentation before and always got stuck on evaluation context, but seeing it explained through an actual financial dashboard made everything fall into place. The instructor walks through why CALCULATE behaves the way it does instead of just handing you formulas to memorize. By the end I had a working dashboard and, more importantly, actually understood the measures I'd built.
Bardzo konkretne wyjaśnienie kontekstu ewaluacji w DAX na przykładzie prawdziwego dashboardu finansowego, choć momentami tempo jest trochę za szybkie dla początkujących.
Наконец-то разобрался с контекстом вычислений и функцией CALCULATE. Финансовый дашборд собрал с нуля, а меры для расчёта прироста год к году теперь пишу не глядя в подсказки.
Endlich verstehe ich Evaluationskontext in DAX.
평가 컨텍스트 개념을 재무 대시보드 예제로 설명해줘서 DAX가 왜 그렇게 동작하는지 처음으로 이해가 됐어요.
Penjelasan tentang row context dan filter context akhirnya masuk akal buat saya berkat contoh dashboard finansial yang dipakai sepanjang kursus.
Este curso me ayudó a entender por fin la diferencia entre contexto de fila y contexto de filtro en DAX, algo que llevaba meses intentando dominar sin éxito. Las medidas se explican paso a paso sobre un dashboard financiero real, así que todo tiene un propósito concreto. Terminé el curso sabiendo construir mis propios KPIs desde cero.
Курс построен вокруг реального финансового дашборда, и это сильно помогает — сразу видно, зачем нужна та или иная мера DAX. Особенно понравилось объяснение evaluation context, до этого момента я просто копировала формулы, не понимая логики. После курса начала сама писать вычисляемые меры для отчётов на работе.
The way this course breaks down evaluation context finally made DAX click for me, especially the CALCULATE examples tied to the financial dashboard. Building the actual report alongside the lessons kept things practical rather than abstract. My only gripe is that a couple of the time intelligence measures move a bit fast if you're brand new to Power BI.
Por fin entendí la diferencia entre el contexto de fila y el de filtro en DAX. Armar el dashboard financiero paso a paso con medidas como CALCULATE y SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR me dejó todo clarísimo.
Solid walkthrough of DAX measures and evaluation context, though the pacing picks up quite a bit once you hit time intelligence.
