Is it still possible to learn Power BI without a work address?

Posted on by jjcalnon

I am unemployed and therefore do not have a work address. I'm trying to update my IT skills to gain employment. I have tried all of the instructions for trying to obtain an onmicrosoft account and trying to do a free Microsoft 365 trial. The E3 does not include Power platform and the E5 does not offer a free trial. I have tried creating several different accounts and I am always presented with the following message: "Thank you for joining. You don't current qualify for a Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription." I have wasted hours on this and am frustrated. I am scheduled for the PL300 Power BI exam next week and hope to pass it without ever being able to use the Service. I am learning fine on the Power BI Desktop. I just can't open Power BI Service. Thank you for any insight you can provide. It really shouldn't be this difficult.

@jjcalnon

Did you try using the developer plan for Power Apps?
https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/developerplan/

Also, maybe post a question in the Power BI forum
