Course Description
Supercharge Power BI Online is a structured, hands-on training that will help you learn to write DAX and gain more powerful insights from your data. (Data Analysis eXpressions is the data modeling language of Power BI and Power Pivot for Excel.)
The course is created and delivered by Matt Allington, a world-renowned DAX expert, trainer, and author of the best-selling book, Supercharge Power BI. The DAX skills learnt in this course are completely transferrable to Excel Power Pivot, so you can apply the techniques in whichever platform you prefer.
Supercharge Power BI Online is a combination of:
- Self-paced learning (reading and hands-on practice) of how to write DAX using either the Supercharge Power BI or Supercharge Excel books.
- Video-based training content to cement the DAX concepts.
How it Works
The course is a self-paced and guided online training that helps you understand how DAX works and how to write DAX measures.

- You can start reading from either Supercharge Power BI or Supercharge Excel right away.
