About the Course

This course forms part of the Microsoft Power BI Analyst Professional Certificate. This Professional Certificate consists of a series of courses that offers a good starting point for a career in data analysis using Microsoft Power BI. In this course, you'll learn how to use Power BI to create and maintain relationships in a data model and form a model using multiple Schemas. You'll explore the basics of DAX, Power BI's expression language, and add calculations to your model to create elements and analysis in Power BI. You'll discover how to configure the model to support Power BI features for insightful visualizations, analysis, and optimization. After completing this course you'll be able to: ● Create and maintain relationships in a data model. ● Form a model using a Star Schema ● Write calculations DAX to create elements and analysis in Power BI ● Create calculated columns and measures in a model ● Perform useful time intelligence calculations in DAX ● Optimize performance in a Power BI model This is also a great way to prepare for the Microsoft PL-300 exam. By passing the PL-300 exam, you’ll earn the Microsoft Power BI Data Analyst certification....

Content seems too condensed for the time period - lots and lots of info packed a short expected timescale. That being said, the content also lacks sufficient guidance, particularly when referring to particular calculations - you are merely tasked with making it, not scaffolded into using a particular calculation/function. Adding to this is the use of functions within calculations - not only are you learning a new function, you are learning how an alternative new function fits within the new function. It adds an unneccessary hurdle to practicing the content. Regarding the practice, I feel like this module could really benefit from more regular practice that involves a breakdown explanation of what a function is actually doing, and then build that back up into where it can slot itself into various calculations. Beyond this, there seems to be a "session" date associated with the course, rather than end dates - this has resulted in being locked out of completing the course within a suited timeframe.

Very valuable information to learn. Too bad there were too many complications with doing the exercises and activities. Some of the files that were supposed to be used for the exercises and activities generated errors. So some of the exercises couldn't be completed. Also, there were instances where the files were good, but missing columns that were needed to complete the exercises. Also, there were some errors in the syntax for the DAX calculations in one of the exercises. All of these issues made it difficult to learn. But the one saving grace was the guided project where you follow along with a recorded video step by step to complete the tasks.

This is more like a long series of promotional\commercial videos rather than practical tutorial. Instructed by different persons, the course lacks integrity and they go back and forth between different topics and repeat a lot of things multiple times. Some parts are tooo much basic and some parts are too advanced. A much shorter course in Udemy was much more helpful for me.

This course was very frustrating. Somebody needs to go back through it and revise all the missing or incorrect data. Update the materials to include correct or missing downloads. Add more information about the CALCULATE function. I found the information in Microsoft Learn area much more helpful than this course.

Too many topics into one module and all important topics which need to be done properly are put together in one course making it look stupid
