This instructor-led programme covers every skill area of the AZ-900 exam, with live classes, hands-on labs in the Azure portal and regular practice in the exam's format.
What you'll learn
- Cloud concepts: cloud models, the shared responsibility model, service types and the benefits of the cloud.

- Azure management and governance: cost management, Azure Policy, resource locks, Microsoft Purview, deployment tools and monitoring.
How you learn

- Hands-on labs in the Azure portal.

Hands-on labs
You do the labs in your own free Azure subscription, guided step by step in your course room.
- Students can use Azure for Students: credit for learning, no credit card, sign-up with your college email.
- Not a student? The Azure free account gives a starting credit and free services; a card is needed only to verify your identity.
- The first lab sets up a budget alert, and every lab ends with a clean-up checklist, so nothing keeps running after class.
