Microsoft[CLOSED] Monthly Training Services Partner Community Call Thread
Our next Community Call is tomorrow, May 22nd at 8 AM and 7 PM Pacific. Invites are attached. Hope to see you there.
MicrosoftThanks for joining us on the call this month. You can access the recording and deck here: https://aka.ms/June2023LPCC. These will be available on the Learning Resources site soon. I've attached invites for our next call, August 23rd.
A couple notes:
- I was not clear when discussing participation requirements for the program. The Learning Action Pack is currently the entry into the program for new partners or for partners that don't have solution area / legacy silver and gold benefits. If you are already established with legacy benefits (or new program benefits after our Jan 2024 launch), you do not need to acquire the LAP. Thanks to several of you who had raised questions about this.
- We won't be having a July Community Call to make way for the Microsoft Inspire Conference. Be sure to register and attend our program session, now labeled as the Training Services Program. More information is available in the call deck.
Have a great couple months and we'll see you in August.
DanDonohue I only had time to listen to the recording and watch the slide deck yesterday. Thanks (for all presenters) for yet another set of ample information on changes and developments!
Regarding Open Book Exam Feature which is already being piloted in DP-420. I couldn't find any public announcement nor anything on Exam DP-420: Designing and Implementing Cloud-Native Applications Using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB - Certifications | Microsoft Learn or Exam policies and FAQs | Microsoft Learn. Is this a (welcome) surprise for DP-420 takers in UI?
- DanDonohueThanks Mika. Public announcement won't come until the August timeframe. We wanted you to be aware of it in case exam takers brought it to your attention. However, since DP-420 is a pilot there is always a risk that a date for full implementation could change - based on the data. When I get more information on a broader release, we'll be sure to update the channel.
