I don't have an work email address but use Office 365.  I have signed up for Power BI training, but cannot get Power BI Desktop to work on my personal computer.

@mxporch  - it's been a while since I've tried using Power BI as a 'guest', but you used to be able to download via this link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=58494 (the advanced download options), and then just 'x' out of the sign in screen that pops up when Power BI opens. This will just let you use desktop - you'll still need a work or school account to use the online functionality, but this is a start. 


Please @mention me in your reply if you want a response.
