Microsoft Fabric was recently announced as the Microsoft suite for an end-to-end analytics software-as-a-service offering by Microsoft. As the suite covers many components and workloads, it is essential to have the right training to ensure the proper use of the technology in the correct setup and architecture. RADACAD has helped many organizations, businesses, and individuals worldwide with analytics upskilling over many years. RADACAD not only has the most comprehensive training on Microsoft Power BI, but we also have designed and developed an exclusive training program for Microsoft Fabric that covers all the workloads of Fabric from data engineering, warehousing, data science, integration, Business Intelligence, real-time, storage engine, governance, Data Activator, administration, and architecture. This training combines lecture and hands-on lab experience with Microsoft Fabric.
Who is this training for?
The training is for you if you are a data analyst, data engineer, data scientist, data developer, data architect, or any other role that deals with data analytics using Microsoft technologies. This training doesn’t have any prerequisites. The training will take you from the beginner level to the advanced level. It is designed so that the learnings can be used immediately after the training day in your day-to-day job and activities.
What is included in the training?
In this training, you will learn about all components of Microsoft Fabric. You will learn about workloads such as Data Integration using Data Factory, Data Engineering, Data Warehousing, Data Science using Synapse, Business Intelligence using Power BI, Real-time Analytics, Data Activator, storage Engine using OneLake, governance, administration, and architecture.
This training will teach you how these workloads work together to build a data analytics solution. You will learn the differences between objects and components and their pros and cons in different usage scenarios. This training not only explains the products, services, and features but also focuses heavily on how they can be used in real-world solutions and what are best practices and use-case scenarios.
At the end of this training, you will be able to design the architecture of data analytics solutions for your organization using Microsoft Fabric. You will know how to design and build the solution.

Here are what some of our attendees think of our other similar courses;
The Power BI Architecture course materials were comprehensive, and Reza is an engaging educator. He gave plenty of practical advice and engaged the class in quality discussions. A very valuable experience; I highly recommend it to anyone planning, implementing or improving Power BI instances. Course topics are suitable for either small or large enterprises. (Richard P.)
Thank you for hosting the Melbourne Power BI architecture course. I learned a lot from this session, even though I consider myself to be a Power BI beginner. I look forward to your future content and want to thank you again for all the efforts you’ve taken to put together this course! (Sonia L.)
It was a pleasure to attend your training session. It had good coverage overall, perfect for a rookie like me. I now get a better perspective and can see how the smaller pieces fit into the larger picture. (Michelle M.)
Reza delivered 2-days of really in-depth sessions to cover all the key areas of Microsoft Fabric. He was very patient in answering all the technical questions. It was good to have someone who understands wider Azure areas to answer the different questions - Synapse, Power BI, Azure SQL, etc. I will highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get knowledge of Microsoft Fabric. (Anand V.)
I found the mix of structured presentation, hands-on lab exercises, and ad hoc discussions worked well, and came away with a more detailed understanding of the Microsoft Fabric architecture and tools, and insight into the best practices for using them. Reza is an engaging presenter and gave useful context about Microsoft's roadmap for future Fabric features. With our organization soon to begin an MS Fabric Proof of Concept, this course was timely, and our learnings from it are informing our approach to the POC. (Martin B.)
Reza is a great trainer and brings a depth of experience with PowerBI implementations. I am glad that he was always happy to answer questions relating to real-world business implementation problems. (Rohan S.)
I thoroughly enjoyed this course; it has given me a much better understanding of how to set up Power BI Analytics following best practices and has given me some great insight into how we could do things differently in my organization. (Paula M.)
