How do I prepare for a certification such as Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals?

Basically, it’s like any other exam you take during your career. First, you have to familiarize yourself with the content and the environment before you can successfully take the exam. Microsoft offers a wide range of information, learning content, and opportunities for this purpose.

Where can I find the learning content I need for certification?

Microsoft provides a very comprehensive overview page of its certifications. Taking the Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals certification as an example, we see the following content in the Rated Qualifications section.

Skills measured
Microsoft - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/

This already gives a rough overview of the content. Scrolling further down, you will find a list of online exam preparation courses for this exam. These are both free and partially paid content, as you can see from the subsection heading.

In order to track your own learning progress with the free content, it is recommended that you set up a Microsoft Learn account. All other content is provided by Microsoft free of charge, this applies in particular to training units with a practical part. Microsoft provides a time-limited Sandbox Subscription for this purpose.

Do I get this information for other Microsoft exams as well?

Yes, the learning experience is structured very consistently at Microsoft, so you will also find the elements and content explained here for other exams.

What does a Microsoft exam look like?

Regardless of the content of an exam, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the exam environment and the structure of the questions. For this purpose, Microsoft (aka.ms/examdemo -) offers a portal where you can familiarize yourself with the structure and question types free of charge and with free access.

Summary

My experience so far has shown that one is already very well prepared for certification with the free content. However, you should not take the exams lightly, as Microsoft itself regularly updates the content and, if necessary, tightens up or replaces questions. Certifications at the Associate level and above require some hands-on experience in addition to the learning content.
