The course is presented in four parts. 

First, a brief introduction to Power Pivot and discuss reasons it has become more versatile than the conventional pivot table:

• Excel spreadsheet has a limit of 1 million rows, while Power Pivot can connect to over 1 million rows of data. So no limit on the data sources.
• Power Pivot can combine all data sources into one pivot table. So no more VLOOKUP().
• A plethora of DAX formulas in Power Pivot. Plus the formulas can be reused!

Second part is to demonstrate basic maneuvers on how to:

• map all dimension tables and fact tables together
• incorporate data from ALL sources into 1 pivot table 

Third, we demonstrate 6 fundamental DAX formulas in Power Pivot to get you started in building advanced models for effective analytics, including:

• CALCULATE
• SUMX
• RELATED
• SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR

Last, we culminate the course with the best practices in Power Pivot modeling, including:

• Use Measures (or Calculated Fields) over Calculated Column 
• Table naming conventions, and
• DAX format
