Hey guys I’m fresh out of college and I have my first job as a data analyst. I was wondering if you guys could do a show on the Pl 300 and what to expect. I’m new to the show so I’m sorry if you did an episode that I missed. The test has changed a lot over the years and I wondered if you guys had any thoughts on the changes.
Show has lots of good thought provoking content around both Power BI and Fabric.
