Answer 1

You should be able to access this content from the official Microsoft Learning course GitHub repo DP-750T00 GitHub repository. The repository contains the exercise notebooks, data files, and lab instructions needed for the course.

The first exercise, 01-explore-azure-databricks.ipynb, introduces the Azure Databricks environment using the CityMoves Transit scenario. Additional notebooks address subsequent data engineering tasks, including data ingestion and transformation.

The supplied files are organized in the repository's Allfiles/data directory. The lab instructions are available under Instructions/Labs. Downloading the repository as a ZIP file provides a local copy of the course materials, including the notebooks and supporting datasets.

Individual notebooks can also be imported directly from their raw GitHub URLs into a Databricks workspace. After importing, attach compute and follow the notebook's instructions. Some exercises require the associated dataset files to be uploaded to a Unity Catalog volume before execution.

I would just add that the course and labs are designed for instructor-led training where a fully provisioned environment is provided that includes a provisioning script to enable the resources required for the labs and an Azure subscription in which to create the Fabric capacity.

If you are pursuing the course through self-paced learning, you need to configure the environment yourself.

Answer 2

The DP-750 transportation scenario is CityMoves Transit, and its practice notebooks and supporting datasets are in the official MicrosoftLearning DP-750 GitHub repository under Allfiles.

Download the course materials

Open the official course repository:
DP-750T00—Implement Data Engineering Solutions using Azure Databricks
Select Code → Download ZIP, then extract the archive.
Look in:
- Allfiles/data for supplied dataset files:
  Allfiles/data
- Allfiles for the lab notebooks.
- Instructions/Labs for the corresponding exercise instructions.

The first lab uses the fictional CityMoves Transit public transportation authority. Its notebook is:

01-explore-azure-databricks.ipynb

Import the notebook directly into Azure Databricks

In the Azure Databricks workspace:

Open Workspace.
Select Create → Notebook → Import.
Select URL.
Enter:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MicrosoftLearning/DP-750T00-Implement-Data-Engineering-Solutions-using-Azure-Databricks/refs/heads/main/Allfiles/01-explore-azure-databricks.ipynb

Select Import, attach compute, and follow the notebook instructions. The notebook indicates which sample data must be uploaded to the Unity Catalog volume.

For later exercises, use the correspondingly numbered notebooks—such as 07-ingest-data-into-unity-catalog.ipynb and 08-cleanse-transform-load-data-into-unity-catalog.ipynb—together with files in Allfiles/data.

If the course expects built-in sample data

Some exercises may use Azure Databricks’ built-in samples catalog rather than a downloaded file. You can inspect it in Catalog Explorer → samples or run:

SHOW SCHEMAS IN samples;
SELECT *
FROM samples.nyctaxi.trips
LIMIT 10;

The samples.nyctaxi.trips table contains New York City taxi-trip data and can be referenced directly from a notebook or SQL editor ^1^.

The DP-750 study guide also links the current self-paced and instructor-led preparation resources; course materials can change as the exam objectives are updated ^2^.
