The best DAX courses in the world are here:

This is a corner of the Internet that's been created by the two world-leading DAX Maestros: Marco Russo and Alberto Ferrari. They ARE the ultimate source of knowledge on DAX. I've taken almost all their courses and have read "The Definitve Guide to DAX" several times (and will still be reading).
This is where my knowledge comes from. And it's rock-solid.
