**Details** The Workplace Ninja User Group Netherlands is proud to announce that on Wednesday the 1st of April 2026 we will organize our 2nd in-person event in the year 2026. **Program:** **15:30 - 16:00: Welcome at location** **16:00 - 17:00: Session 1: Jorik Polhuis “Copilot als reality check: wanneer AI je project niet spaart”** **17:05 - 18:05: Session 2: Arno van Dijk, "How to Protect Your Tokens with Intune & Conditional Access"** **18:05 - 19:00: Food, drinks and networking, sponsored by location host** **19:00 - 20:00: Session 3:** **20:00 - 21:00: Drinks and networking** Location: \ **Session 1: Jorik Polhuis “Copilot als reality check: wanneer AI je project niet spaart”** Wat gebeurt er als je Copilot vraagt om eerlijk te zijn over je project? In deze sessie bouwen we samen een agent die niet samenvat, maar **kritisch meedenkt**: wat klopt hier niet, wat missen we, en waar lopen we risico zonder het te benoemen? Aan de hand van een herkenbare projectcase laten we zien: * hoe je van een idee naar een agent komt * waarom agent‑denken iets anders is dan prompten * en waar het misgaat zonder goede afspraken en data **Session 2:** How to Protect Your Tokens with Intune & Conditional Access - Arno van Dijk When accessing resources with Single Sign On, the Microsoft Services makes use of a Primary Refresh Token (PRT). This token is created when a device is registered so it can make use of Single Sign On. Now a days token theft is becoming a huge problem. Luckily Microsoft has released several features to reduces the possibility for Token theft. Read on to learn more about the profile possibilities in Intune and how to enforce your token protection with Conditional Access **Session 3:** How Not to Manage Your Microsoft 365 Tenant: And What to Do Instead - Dave Stork Managing a Microsoft 365 tenant can be deceptively simple (it is a commodity, right! Right?), but small misconfigurations can lead to security gaps and vulnerabilities. In this session, Microsoft MVP Dave Stork highlights common mistakes he encounters in real-world M365 environments and explains why they introduce unnecessary risk. More importantly, he demonstrates practical, secure alternatives based on Microsoft's latest guidance, CIS benchmarks, and field experience. Attendees will learn how to strengthen administrative identity, access, and posture with approaches such as least‑privilege administration, secure account design, Conditional Access, privileged access management, and automation-first operations. Expect pragmatic insights, recognizable examples, and actionable recommendations to immediately improve your tenant’s management.

You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together. Hope to see you soon!

Spring! A perfect time to join this "Success Team", which has already proven to be transformative for some members. Bring your earthly goals and impossible dreams! We gather in a pleasant space at Rosa Buurtcentrum (2nd floor–eerste verdieping–right hand, last door; there is a lift). There will be tea and you are welcome (but not required) to bring snacks. We'd love to have you. It's free (50 cents for tea contribution would be perfect). \*\*\* Help wanted & help offered. Bi-weekly meetings (every two weeks). Language English/Dutch. This idea is inspired by Barbara Sher's story and experiences. Please see her Ted Talk titled "Isolation is the dream-killer, not your attitude". The idea in short: **One person at a time tells the group his/her dream or aim and the obstacles they face to achieve it.** **It could be a trip, an experience, a change of career, an undertaking of some kind, learning a skill, solving a particular problem or even finding out what you really want.** **The group works to realise the person's aim. Not just theoretically, also practically. For this we use our experience and networks.** —Nothing as satisfying as helping another! Perhaps suitable, Gabor Mate's words: "You never heal alone." Please contact me at galatv@protonmail.com if you have questions or would like to help me to organise these gatherings. Thank you! Gala Painting: "Apes in the Orange Grove", 1910, Henri Rousseau.

🌸 **Free online gathering** **Next circle: April 5** After this, we will continue meeting on the **first Sunday of each month**. A space to begin the month by returning to yourself. This women’s circle is an invitation to give yourself one hour to pause, slow down, and reconnect with your body, your inner voice, and other women. A simple and caring commitment: beginning the month with meditation and journaling in community. You can think of it as a small personal ritual, creating the habit of listening to yourself, writing, and setting intentions for the month ahead. We meet online on Sunday afternoons to gently transition into a new week and a new month, creating a moment of presence, reflection, and intention. During this 1-hour session we will explore: ✨ a guided meditation to arrive in the body ✨ a journaling practice to connect with what is alive in you ✨ a space for sharing, where you are welcome to speak or simply listen No previous experience is needed. You are welcome just as you are. Please have a notebook and a pen nearby, and join from a quiet space where you won’t be interrupted during the session. You are welcome to join once, or come back each month. The choice is yours. The first circles are offered for free in order to create community and open this space to more women. Participants who register for the event will receive the **Google Meet link** before the circle begins. It will be lovely to welcome you into this space 🌿

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
