What Is Microsoft 365?
Microsoft 365 is a comprehensive suite of cloud-powered tools — including Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, Exchange Online, and Intune — that empowers organisations to work securely from anywhere. This course explores how these services integrate to deliver productivity, device management, and identity protection across enterprise and SMB environments. Learners will gain clear insight into the differences between on-premises, hybrid, and cloud deployments.
Security, Compliance, and Licensing
A significant portion of this course covers the built-in security and compliance capabilities of Microsoft 365, including Microsoft Defender, Purview compliance solutions, and Azure Active Directory identity management. Delegates will also examine the various Microsoft 365 subscription plans, pricing models, and support offerings to understand how organisations can align licensing to business needs.
Who Should Attend?
This course is well-suited to business decision-makers, IT professionals beginning their Microsoft 365 journey, sales and pre-sales consultants, and anyone pursuing the Microsoft Certified: Microsoft 365 Fundamentals credential. No prior cloud or Microsoft 365 experience is required, making it an excellent entry point for professionals in the GCC and Asia-Pacific regions transitioning to cloud-based work environments.
