The Microsoft Developer Program
You may want to consider a future as a Microsoft Low Code Developer but were immediately stuck with access you want but don’t have through your normal channels. You may be in a role that doesn’t give you sufficient permissions or a company that doesn’t have certain Microsoft Licences.
Microsoft doesn’t want to let any of that hold you back in your self development which is why they introduced the Microsoft Developer Program.
The Benefits
The great thing about joining the Microsoft Developer Program is that you get given a free developer sandbox with an M365 licence and apps to boot! It can include sample data packs to hep you understand how M365 works and you’ll also be able to access loads of other community benefits where others gather to share, develop, assist, and support each other.
The Community
I first subscribed to the Microsoft Developer Program as I was frustrated with the enthusiasm to learn yet held back with a previous employers reluctance to allow this development. Once I joined, I then opened a door to a whole world or community resources.
This is where I was first introduced to Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs), like minded Developers, and of course Microsoft Employees! One person doesn’t know everything but everyone can help.
Beyond the Power Platform
Once I became more involved in eh community and using the Microsoft Developer Program, my outlook broadened even further beyond the Power Platform. The realization hit me of how much more there was that you can do with the Power Platform whilst integrating it further across Microsoft 365. This only peaked my interest even further and pushed me to learn even more!
