How VNode delivers this
Who this is for, and how we run it
VNode ITeS delivers Introduction to Cloud Infrastructure as an MCT-led Microsoft program for Administrator. Typical duration is 3 days (Virtual, On-site, or Hybrid). Labs follow production-shaped scenarios rather than slide-only walkthroughs. Certification prep maps to AZ-900 without turning the week into a dump of Learn modules. Private cohorts can shift emphasis by role mix, workspace or repo constraints, and rollout timing.
Audience Profile
Built for these roles
This course is suitable for IT personnel who are just beginning to work with Azure. This audience wants to learn about our offerings and get hands-on experience with the product. This course primarily uses the Azure portal and command line interface to create resources and does not require scripting skills. Students in this course will gain confidence to take other role-based courses and certifications, such as Azure Administrator. This course combines lecture, demonstrations, and hands-on labs. This course will also help prepare someone for the AZ-900 exam.
