How I passed Microsoft’s AI-900 exam in 10 days with just 10 hours of study
Hi all, after two weeks of downtime, I am back on Medium to share another article with you all.
Amidst the dire and temperamental UK climate and cold days, I have brightened up my spring by spending most of April focusing on my continuous development journey.
Since August 2022, I have been collecting Microsoft Certifications to bolster my journey in the IT and Applications field, and with AI and Copilot being such a hot topic in 2024, I thought it was more than wise to scoop up the new Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals certificate (AI-900) to stay ahead of the curve.
How to get started with Microsoft Certifications
Microsoft offer a range of study paths and certifications for both those who are new to the Microsoft technology stack and also for seasoned IT professionals who want to expand their existing product knowledge and expertise.
The certifications are split into two categories:
Fundamentals Certifications: These are Microsoft Exams that usually end in “-900”, “910” or “920”, and are great for those who are either brand new to an app, product or concept, or for individuals looking to brush up on the basics of existing Microsoft product knowledge.
Examples include: Microsoft 365 Fundamentals (MS-900), and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Fundamentals (CRM) (MB-910) and Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-900).
Role-Based Certifications: Microsoft’s has another level of qualifications for those at intermediate or expert level who want to expand existing knowledge and expertise in a particular area. These exam codes usually end can vary from the “100s” all the way up to “600”, and are typically focused around gaining deeper knowledge in system administration, development, consulting and solution architecture, to support an ongoing role or career path.
