Learn the absolute basics of database normalization with crystal-clear explanations and expert-led tutorials.

In this demo, you’ll learn how to transform a single merged table into a relational data model using Power Query in Excel or Power BI.

Along the way, you’ll learn how to apply data normalization techniques to preserve integrity, eliminate redundancy, and build efficient and scalable models for data analysis or business intelligence reporting.

We’ll talk about:

✔️ What normalization means (in plain English) and why you should care

✔️ How to create star and snowflake schemas by "unmerging" tables

✔️ The difference between 1st, 2nd & 3rd normal form (1NF, 2NF, 3NF)

✔️ When normalization is actually NOT the best approach

…all in less than 20 minutes!
