Hey everyone, got some very exciting news... for the first time ever (and possibly the last time ever!), you can get 20% OFF a Fabric Dojo Annual Memberships. This deal is ONLY for the next few days, and might never return to be honest - so it's best to act quick! Who is Fabric Dojo for? Put simply, the Dojo is for you: - if you want to learn to build a data platform using Microsoft Fabric - then this is for you. - If you want to go beyond watching videos, and actually get hands-on, building data engineering solutions in Fabric, whilst learning best practices and tips and tricks along the way with 300+ other passionate, like-minded people. We have analysts in there, architects, engineers, managers, a broad mix, which is what makes it exciting! You can read more about WHO benefits from the Dojo by reading our Testimonials. I'm pretty sure Fabric Dojo is the most comprehensive collection of training on topics related to Microsoft Fabric Data Engineering & building your data platform. I've been working on it full-time for over a year now! You will have access to over 120 hands-on tutorials (See the full list here) covering Pipelines, Dataflows, CI/CD, Lakehouses/ Python/ Spark, REST APIs, Data Warehousing, Data Quality, Real-time, Capacities, Optimization, Architecture & much more. Including 40+ hours of solution walkthrough and explanations - we go deep! On top that we have TWO in-depth, real-world projects to tie everything together (this will take you 10 weeks to complete each of them). AND the DP-700 Bootcamp to accelerate your path to certification! AND I'm available everyday to answer your questions, and we have 48+ hours of live calls to network, learn, ask questions, get feedback on your solutions. To sign up, and take advantage of the deal:

UPDATE, 2nd Apr: Sorry folks, the DP-800 is not a real thing (at least yet!). Just an April fools joke, enjoy your days 😀 #microsoftfabric #dp800 #april1st

I'll probably end up doing both, but I've decided I fancy DP-700 first. When I joined here I was reading about how the study was gamified(?), I was wondering if I'm studying DP-700 from scratch where do I start with that? I'll be covering the Fabric Foundation classes first of course, but then where does the gamified part start, and how do I know what order to do the dojo tutorials in? I know there are foundational tutorials but are the done in a certain order? I've just got some bench time at work so making the most of it to finally get my study off the start line and get stuck in. I have already completed the welcome pack even though it still says 0% :). I am travelling abroad in a few months so I have this real target of passing before I leave. Thank you all in advance of any pointers.

🎉I’m excited to share that I’ve passed the DP-600 exam! 🚀 Big thanks to @Will Needham and this amazing community—your insights and resources were invaluable! 💡 Tips for DP-600 prep: ✅ Hands-on Practice - especially on Deployment pipelines (Dev → Test → Prod) while experimenting with Fabric item names, schedule refreshes and T-SQL practice. ✅ Will’s Videos – That summarizes and simplifies the Fabric architecture and how it works. ✅ Microsoft Learn Portal – Invest time in navigating the documentation structure; searching with key terms often provides direct answers in summaries. Looking forward to achieve further career milestones and continuously learn and make the most of this community! 🙌. All the Best!😄

I am happy to share I passed the DP-600 exam on my second attempt, scoring 700/1000—just at the passing mark! It was a challenging experience, and one key lesson I learned is that having mock exam questions alone won't help if you don't understand the underlying principles. That’s where Will Needham’s course made a huge difference for me. His content was a game-changer, providing the in-depth understanding needed to tackle the exam successfully.
