Hey everyone - hope you're doing well!
We're continuing to invest in Fabric Dojo to make it the ultimate environment for learning Fabric Data Engineering. We recently crossed over 50 hours of exclusive content, across over 150 hands-on projects and tutorials (see full list), organised into a 10-module roadmap. All targeted towards teaching you the hands-on skills and experience to thrive in Fabric Data Engineering - giving you the confidence to build real-world solutions, and get hired.
Aaaanddd, we're not stopping there!

In 2026, we're bringing on-board a number of technical experts to share their expertise with our Fabric Dojo members to ensure they can build the deep technical skills that companies are looking for.
๐ข Very excited to announce that Rui Carvalho (LinkedIn) is delivering a series of five tutorials in Fabric Dojo on the Fundamentals of Spark - the stuff you really need to get right when writing Spark code. Rui is a true expert in Data Engineering & Spark in particular, and he's a great teacher, so we're lucky to have him! You can enjoy his content (and the other 150+ tutorials) by signing up today. ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฅ๐๐ง๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐

I asked our members what they would like most from the Dojo going into 2026, and the answer was three things:
๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ-๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐๐ณ๐ฐ๐ซ๐ฆ๐ค๐ต๐ด - we have now delivered TWO real-world projects over a period of 10 weeks, these are extensive projects that help tie together all the other learnings in the Dojo. One Intermediate level, and the other an Advanced-level project. Note: the real-world projects are for members on Premium tier only. ๐๐-๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐ต๐ข ๐๐ฏ๐จ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ - this will be a core focus in Q1 2026. Recent innovations in LLMs mean the workflow for developing Data Engineering solutions in Fabric has changed. We'll be going deep on what this looks like and how to take advantage of these recent AI updates.
๐๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐๐ค๐ค๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ข๐ต๐ฐ๐ณ๐ด - as well as the technical skills, making progress in your career depends a lot of soft skills, so I'll be focusing a lot in the upcoming months in the Dojo on helping our members progress their careers through communication, portfolio-building, content & more!

2025 was a huge year of effort from our side in developing Fabric Dojo full-time to make it the ultimate environment for learning Fabric Data Engineering, and our members achieve a lot of success (new jobs, promotions, certifications & more).
If that's your goal, sign up today and introduce yourself to the community! All the best,
