NEW: MS-203 Retirement Update
The new retirement date for MS-203: Microsoft 365 Messaging will now be December 29th, 2023. We understand that the initial retirement date did not support future scheduled deliveries of this course, and we always strive to provide course retirements in a timely manner to allow for appropriate planning. Please continue to reach out with any questions you may have. Thank you!NEW: AI Course coming your way!!
1-Day ILT Course Delivery (There is currently no exam/cert for this ILT Course) AI Labs will require an OpenAI Service approved Azure subscription. We strongly recommend labs be performed and demonstrated by Trainers only. Trainers must submit their Azure subscription for OpenAI Service governance approval. Trainers will only need to request/gain approval once, for all future use. Request form can be found here: https://aka.ms/RequestAzureOpenAI Learners can apply for OpenAI Service approval with their own Azure subscription and perform lab steps on their own, once they are approved. Further details on the restricted access policy can be found here: https://aka.ms/AzureOpenAI_Support __________________________________________________________________________________ Additional information: Azure OpenAI requires registration and approval of your Azure subscription. As part of Microsoft's commitment to responsible AI, we are designing and releasing Azure OpenAI Service, with the intention of protecting the rights of individuals and society, as well as fostering transparent human-computer interaction. For this reason, we currently limit the access and use of Azure OpenAI, which is why registration and governance approval is required. We are strongly recommending that AI-050 labs be performed and demonstrated by only the Trainer during class. Approval can take several days to complete. As demand for AI services increases, we worry that Learners will have a degraded experience if they can’t be approved in time for the class. If you intend to deliver this course, please have your Trainers register for OpenAI services through this link https://aka.ms/RequestAzureOpenAI well in advance of the scheduled delivery time. The labs steps are available on GitHub and if Learners want to get approved for the OpenAI services they are able to and use the lab steps for self-study.
