Who should attend this course

This Microsoft cybersecurity course is for the Identity and Access Administrators who are planning to take the associated certification exam, or who are performing identity and access administration tasks in their day-to-day job. This course would also be helpful to an administrator or engineer that wants to specialize in providing identity solutions and access management systems for Azure-based solutions; playing an integral role in protecting an organization.

This Microsoft Official Course prepares students for the Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator Associate certification. The SC-300 exam measures your ability to accomplish the following technical tasks: implement an identity management solution; implement an authentication and access management solution; implement access management for apps; and plan and implement an identity governance strategy.

Prerequisites

Before attending this course, students should have understanding of:

  •  Security best practices and industry security requirements such as defense in depth, least privileged access, shared responsibility, and zero trust model.
  •  Be familiar with identity concepts such as authentication, authorization, and active directory.
  •  Have some experience deploying Azure workloads. This course does not cover the basics of Azure administration, instead the course content builds on that knowledge by adding security specific information.
  •  Some experience with Windows and Linux operating systems and scripting languages is helpful but not required. Course labs may use PowerShell and the CLI.

You can satisfy the prerequisites above for SC-300T00 by attending the SC-900T00: Microsoft Security, Compliance and Identity Fundamentals training.
