***Hello Power BI Women!***
We have our second “Book Club” event starting May 7, 2024. We’ll be working the lessons/text from the codeprowess book, “***Python Programming for Beginners: The Complete Python.”***
Link to Book:
**[Python Programming for Beginners: The Complete Python](https://www.amazon.com/Python-Programming-Beginners-Hands-Interactive/dp/B0CSY7BL6Q)**
**Why a second book when we are not finished with the first?**
With the introduction of Fabric, particularly Fabric notebooks, using PySpark is a valuable tool. After inquiring, Belinda discovered that it is probably better to learn Python, then use it in PySpark, rather than just learning PySpark. So here we go!

**What does this cost?**
For the event(s), this is FREE to Power BI Women members. I do ask that you purchase the book in some way, shape, or form, out of respect to the author.

**How will this work?**
Approximately, every other week, Belinda Allen will lead you through a chapter, or portion of a chapter, at each event. There will be “hands -on” lessons, for which you will be provided the sample data. With each lesson, we will discuss what we know about the lesson, what we learned about the lesson, and what ideas we get about the lesson. This will be a completely interactive event. Bring your laptop, Power BI Desktop, and your “learning attitude” because we are going to have a great time investing in ourselves!
*Note: Each meeting will have a separate invite, to fit in with Belinda’s crazy schedule.*

**What does this cost?**
For the event(s), this is FREE to Power BI Women members. I do ask that you purchase the book in some way, shape, or form, out of respect to the author. I understand there is a new release coming out in the Summer, so if you want to wait until then, I’m ok with that.
