🎥 [RECORDING] from the Learn Microsoft Fabric Community & Product Update call

🚀

👋 Welcome to the first Cross-Community Monthly Update! Each month, I'll be populating this post, with updates from all the Communities/ Channels I manage, PLUS updates from the Fabric Product Team - new features.

I hear from lots of people that it's difficult to keep up-to-date with Fabric and all the constant changes, so hopefully this will serve as a useful resource for tracking what's changing, and what's important. As always, your feedback is very welcome!

In this post, we'll cover:

Learn Microsoft Fabric Community Updates
Fabric Dojo Community Updates
Learn Microsoft Fabric with Will - YouTube Channel Updates

We've made a mountain of updates and improvements to Fabric Dojo since our last price increase (beginning of 2025), so from 1st October there will be a price increase (for new joiners, existing members keep the same rate they joined at). Join Fabric Dojo today to lock-in the current rate, and accelerate your path to Fabric Data Engineering!
