OVERVIEW Prerequisites—this is a day of supervised revision for anyone who wishes to take the PL-300 exam so we expect you to have attended a PL-300 course, either taught or on your own, before attending this day of revision. We are happy for attendees to join the course if you have taken the PL-300 with us or with another provider. In the morning we look at questions from the PL-300 exam, grouped by subject area. For each question we show you the correct answer and then explain why that is the correct answer. After lunch everyone tries a practice exam under exam conditions and we finish the day with clarification on the subjects or specific questions that the class is finding hard. The cost of the course includes a free voucher to take the exam, so please don’t buy your own separately. If you do so we cannot reimburse you with the cost of the exam. COURSE BENEFITS: Discover the parts of the course on which to focus most attention Become familiar with the styles and formats of the exam questions Alert yourself to some of the particularly tricky questions Familiarise yourself with the style of the 'case study' question Practice an exam under real exam conditions Get a feel for the time you need to devote to the normal questions and to the case study WHO IS THE COURSE FOR? Power BI report developers who need PL-300 Certification to apply for a job Business Intelligence specialists who wish to enhance their career prospects with a PL-300 Certification Anyone who wishes to maximise their chances of passing the PL-300 Power BI Data Analyst exam COURSE OUTLINE Module 1 Structure Of The Exam Registration for the exam and setup of your workspace The percentage of marks devoted to each subject area Types of questions used in the exam Advised timing for the normal questions and for the case study question Module 2 Individual Exam Question Practice The exam questions are divided into subject areas and for each question… We consider the question and try to answer it We view the answer Where necessary, we look at an in-depth explanation of why that is the correct answer Examine case study questions and how to treat these differently from the normal questions Module 3 Practice Exam Under Exam Conditions Attendees take a practice exam Attendees receive a mark, broken down into subject areas Module 4 Exam Question Practice Focussed On Tricky Areas Together, based on the results of attendees’ exam results we decide which areas on which to focus More practice on individual exam questions using the same style as in Module 2
