Azure Foundations for Career Switchers
A gentle eight-week introduction to Azure for analysts and operations specialists moving towards a cloud role.
Next cohort: 18 February 2025 · 20 seats
About this programme
Designed with the Student Success team for people who are not engineers by training but who need fluency in Azure to grow in their current role. The pace is deliberate, the homework is short and weekly, and there is one extra office hours block on Sunday afternoons. By the end you can take and pass AZ-900 — and more importantly, you can read and discuss an architecture diagram with engineering colleagues.
What is included
- Sunday afternoon office hours in addition to weekday sessions
- Glossary deck reviewed with a mentor in week two
- Five short labs without time pressure
- AZ-900 practice questions woven through every module
- Career conversations panel with two graduates in week seven
- Optional CV review with the Student Success Manager
Outcomes you can speak to
- Sit AZ-900 with practice scores consistently above 80 percent
- Hold an architecture conversation with engineering colleagues without an interpreter
- Apply for a cloud-adjacent role with a CV that has been reviewed once
Hyojin Seo
Hyojin runs the career conversations panel and the optional CV review.
