AI-900: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals Course
This course introduces fundamental concepts related to artificial intelligence (AI) and the services in Microsoft Azure that can be used to build AI solutions. The course is not designed to teach students to become professional data scientists or software developers, but rather to raise awareness of common AI workloads and the ability to identify Azure services to support them. The course is designed as a blended learning experience that combines instructor-led courses with online materials on the Microsoft Learn platform (https://azure.com/learn). The practical exercises in the course are based on Learn modules, and students are encouraged to use the Learn content as reference materials to reinforce what they learn in class and explore topics in greater depth.
