About this course

On the way you'll also pick up lots of clever techniques for building data models, including ways to model multiple calendars, parent-child hierarchies and dynamic security. The course uses Power BI Desktop for editing measures, but is just as useful if you're using PowerPivot or SQL Server Analysis Services (tabular model).
