Fabric Data Dive with Microsoft Student Ambassadors
Fabric Data Dive with Microsoft Student Ambassadors
Microsoft Fabric unifies data engineering, data science, real-time analytics, visualization, governance, and AI into a single end-to-end platform. This beginner-friendly event introduces the complete Fabric workflow through five practical sessions designed for students exploring analytics, data engineering, visualization, and AI.
You’ll explore:
• Power BI visualization and GeoAnalytics
• Ingesting data with OneLake, Pipelines, and Dataflows
• Cleaning and transforming data with SQL and Notebooks
• Analyzing data with Warehouse SQL, Lakehouse SQL, and KQL-lite
• AI/ML fundamentals and Copilot-assisted exploration
• Fabric security, governance, lineage, and responsible AI
No prior data experience required.
