These classes have the benefit of being tailored to different programs and skill levels, making it easy to choose which concepts you need to focus on. Choose live instruction and log into your course from anywhere, or opt for a class that’s self-paced so you can complete it at your leisure.

While each certification pathway can differ in duration, generally, employees may earn certifications within a few months. For some individuals, signing up for training courses can significantly reduce the amount of time that it takes to prepare for Microsoft’s certification exams.
