Passed Microsoft Exam MS-900: Microsoft 365 Fundamentals
This week I took - and passed - the Microsoft exam MS-900: Microsoft 365 Fundamentals. This is my last certification badge for this year, but I have already planned the exams that I will take next year. This exam is ideal for starting a certification path in the Microsoft SaaS cloud model. The preparation for the exam will provide you with a solid knowledge base and allow you to know the applications and features available in Microsoft 365.
This exam will measure the following skills: #
- Cloud concepts.
- The different types of cloud services available: IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, Public, Private, and Hybrid.
- Microsoft 365 services and concepts.
- The core Microsoft 365 components
- Compare core services in Microsoft 365 with corresponding on-premises services.
- Understand the Windows-as-a-Service (WaaS) model.
- Microsoft 365 Admin Center and M365 user portal.
- Office 365 ProPlus.
- The Enterprise Mobility + Security solution.
- Analytics capabilities in Microsoft 365.
- Understand security and compliance concepts with Microsoft 365.
- Identity and access in Microsoft 365.
- Threat protection in Microsoft 365.
- Microsoft 365 Security Center.
- The concepts of cloud identity, on-premises identity, and hybrid identity.

If you plan to take that exam, you should really be familiar with the products and solutions mentioned above. To prepare for the exam, I completed the Microsoft Learn “ Microsoft 365 Fundamentals” learning path. You also have a Practice Test on the Measureup website if you want to check your knowledge before taking the exam. But if you are looking for a book or an e-book, the official study guide will be on sale at the Microsoft Press Store on February 4. I hope you find this information useful and good luck!
