In this one-day course students explore the data science process and learn how to train machine learning models to accomplish artificial intelligence in Microsoft Fabric.

This one-day course prepares you for an Applied Skills credential.
For more than 30 years, Microsoft's industry-recognised certifications have provided proof of world-class technical proficiency for in-demand job roles. In today’s ever-changing business environment, there are also times when you need verified project-specific skills. Microsoft Applied Skills is a new verifiable credential that validates that you have the targeted skills needed to implement critical projects aligned to business goals and objectives. Applied Skills gives you a new opportunity to put your skills centre-stage, empowering you to showcase what you can do and what you can bring to key projects in your organisation.
