Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator

13 Hands-On Labs

4 SC-300 Exam Domains

Self-Paced

Stop buying courses you never finish.

I’ve bought plenty of IT courses that looked useful. I’d start one, work through a few lessons, put it down, and never come back to finish it.

That’s exactly why I created this mini bootcamp.

I wanted something for people like me. People who already work in IT, want to learn something practical, but don’t want another 20-hour course sitting unfinished.

The idea is simple: give yourself a long weekend, build something real, and actually finish what you started.

Instead of spending hours watching lectures, you’ll work through 13 hands-on labs with step-by-step instructions and real screenshots.

You’ll build a Microsoft identity environment in Azure, including:

  • A Windows Server 2022 Active Directory domain controller
  • A Windows 11 domain-joined workstation
  • Hybrid identity synchronization with Microsoft Entra
  • MFA, Conditional Access, and SAML single sign-on
  • Application registrations, Microsoft Graph, and identity governance

Less watching. More building. Something you can actually finish.
