You can get to know the Power BI outline from here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/
I believe the best approach to create model is to start with the books:
- Building Data Models With Power Pivot
-
Learn to Write DAX: A practical guide to learning Power Pivot for Excel and Power BI
-
M Is for (Data) Monkey: A Guide to the M Language in Excel Power Query

Anonymous - The absolute best learning material is my book, Learn Power BI.
Just kidding, I would start with this: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/
Depends on what you want to learn and how you learn. marcorusso's book on DAX is the gold standard for DAX. I also like Phil_Seamark 's books if you are coming from SQL. MattAllington has some fantastic books as well. Soooooo many blogs, I thought there was a page on this site that cataloged them but I can't find it. powerbi.tips is great Mike_Carlo .

Lots of stuff I forgot!
