Pros
Gives a high-level overview of the DP-100 learning paths.
Completely free to access.
Points to other official resources and labs.
Cons
Not a study guide; contains no technical content for the exam.
Very niche audience (educators only).
Essentially an advertisement for Microsoft's curriculum.
The title's "tips and tricks" got me. I thought this was a hidden gem for passing the DP-100 exam. It's not. This is a guide for professors on how to *teach* the DP-100 course. The content just walks through the five official learning paths and suggests which labs to use in a classroom, how to pace the material over a semester, and where to find instructor materials.
There is no code, no practice questions, and no technical substance. It's all meta-content. For a student trying to prep for the actual cert, this was a complete waste of an hour. The module is free, which is the only reason I'm not more annoyed. But it’s a reminder to read the target 'Role' on these Learn pages carefully. This one says 'Higher Ed Educator' for a reason. Don't make the same mistake I did.
