Key Details
The Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator Associate (SC-300) validates expertise in designing and managing identity and access management systems using Microsoft Entra ID. Intended for security engineers and IAM leads, this course covers single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), privileged access management, and identity governance. Upskilling your technical staff with SC-300 secures application access across multi-cloud and hybrid environments, reducing identity-related security risks while streamlining end-user access for increased productivity.
- Module 1: Implement and Manage Identities in Microsoft Entra ID – Covers tenant configuration, user and group lifecycle management, hybrid identity synchronisation, and external identity access controls.
- Module 2: Implement Authentication and Access Management – Focuses on configuring multi-factor authentication (MFA), passwordless sign-in methods, risk-based Conditional Access policies, and Microsoft Entra Identity Protection.
- Module 3: Implement Access Management for Applications and Workloads – Explores enterprise application registration, service principal management, single sign-on (SSO) protocols, managed identities, and API permission granting. Module 4: Plan and Implement Identity Governance – Details the deployment of entitlement management, access reviews, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), and lifecycle workflows to enforce least-privilege compliance.
Learners engage in continuous formative evaluation throughout the course, utilising interactive hands-on lab environments, and practice quizzes to reinforce technical configuration skills. Summative certification is achieved by passing the official Microsoft MD-102 invigilated examination. This comprehensive assessment features multiple-choice items, drag-and-drop tasks, and scenario-based case studies designed to evaluate real-world administrative competence under timed conditions.
Achieving this certification validates candidate readiness for high-impact IT roles such as Endpoint Administrator, Enterprise Mobility Engineer, Systems Administrator, or Modern Workplace Specialist. Successful graduates gain immediate professional standing within enterprise IT departments, positioning themselves to lead digital workspace transformations. Candidates can seamlessly progress towards advanced expert-level credentials, including the Microsoft Certified: Cybersecurity Architect Expert or specialised identity management certifications.
While formal academic prerequisites are flexible, candidates should ideally possess a foundational understanding of Microsoft 365 workloads, network administration, and Windows client operating systems. Prior experience or foundational qualifications such as Microsoft 365 Fundamentals (MS-900) or Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) are also highly recommended.
