Hi,

I’m new to Desktop Power BI.  Even though I’m a CPA, in my former life I was a software engineer.  While I’m doing OK w/ DAX expressions, I think that I’m only utilizing 10% of its capabilities.  Can anyone recommend a good book or online course (not from Microsoft – it doesn’t work for me) that teaches one how to really learn DAX in order to build complex analysis & drill-down reports?

Thanx in advance for your help,

Best,

Irene

Pragmatic Works has an extensive library of online courses for Power BI Desktop at a reasonable cost.  I’ve taken several, both online and live, and they are exceptionally well done.  A lot of information, interesting presentation and very user friendly.

This book has helped me tremendously in my Power BI consulting: Analyzing and Visualizing Data By Using Power BI

This is my favorite blog and youtube channel:

Greetings : 

The following is ‘hands down’? the authoritative guide on how to functionally master DAX for your use case (e.g., excel, PowerBI, Analysis Services, etc.): 
DAX – SQLBI

This will step you through everything you need (e.g., data modeling, authoring DAX, etc.). 

Another good reference for a general overview of power bi would be Microsoft’s course on EDX (Free): 
Analyzing and Visualizing Data with Power BI

Hope this helps!
Thanks!
William

SQLBI  has a great free course on DAX called Introducing DAX. These are the masters of DAX too. 
Two more excellent resources that I have experience with and can attest to are udemy courses from Chris Dutton. He has one that includes a lot of DAX called, Intro to Power Query, Power Pivot & DAX. The other is called Up & Running with Power BI Desktop.

I studied DAX with this book and it will give you all about DAX from A to Z.
