Designing Semantics with Microsoft Fabric IQ
Design meaning once, and reuse it everywhere, by using semantic models in Fabric IQ
Course Summary
Do you want to start working with semantic models in Microsoft Fabric IQ?
As Fabric IQ is in preview, the focus of this course is on semantic design decisions that remain valid, even as the tools, interfaces, and features evolve. It does not aim to walk through every UI option or provide beginner-level Fabric training. This course is about designing meaning once, and reusing it everywhere, by using semantic models in Fabric IQ.
We assume you already understand the basics of Fabric and analytics tooling.
- Are you responsible for shared understanding, not just individual outputs?
- Do you need to design metrics that will be reused across teams, reports, and AI workloads?
- Have you ever had to explain why two dashboards show different numbers for the same question?
If that matches the kind of responsibility you have, you’re in the right place. You’ll get clear explanations, hands-on exercises, and short quizzes to make sure you not only understand the concepts—but can confidently apply them. And while they're obviously optional, we encourage you to complete the practical exercises. We have tried to make this as easy as possible. The main thing you'll need is a trial (or real) Fabric account.
