Overview

Please be aware the MS900 is a very intense fast paced course due to the volume of content to be delivered in a single day. The event may extend beyond a 5:30 finish. Delegates wanting the MS900 course with a less intense delivery and more opportunity for discussions, demos and explanations of topics should consider the Microsoft 365 Fundamentals - Deeper Dive 2 day event.

This course introduces Microsoft 365, an integrated cloud platform that delivers industry-leading productivity apps along with intelligent cloud services, and world-class security. You’ll learn foundational knowledge on the considerations and benefits of adopting cloud services and the Software as a Service (SaaS) cloud model, with a specific focus on Microsoft 365 cloud service offerings.

You will begin by learning about cloud fundamentals, including an overview of cloud computing. You will be introduced to Microsoft 365 and learn how Microsoft 365 solutions improve productivity, facilitate collaboration, and optimize communications.
