Batches form on a rolling basis. Send an enquiry and we will reply with the next available start date and times that fit your schedule.

How are session times decided?

Once you enquire, we set up a short Microsoft Teams call to agree the days and times that work for the batch.

Do you include hands-on labs?

Yes. You practise in a real environment throughout the SC-100 course, so the exam tasks feel routine by the time you sit it.
