About this course

What the Microsoft Azure AZ-104 Administrator Certification course covers

You take Microsoft Azure AZ-104 Administrator Certification online, at your own pace, without booking a place on anything. Budget roughly 35 hours for the 7 modules, less if the subject is already familiar. Your login lasts 12 months, which is long enough to come back to a section when the subject turns up at work.

Expect to cover Azure Overview, Azure Tools, Azure Identities and Governance and Azure Storage. There are 3 further modules beyond those, listed in full on the Modules tab.

It is structured around AZ-104, which makes it exam preparation rather than a general introduction. We list 12 Cloud & DevOps courses, of which 6 sit at Intermediate. It is one of the longer ones in the subject, so budget an evening rather than a lunch break. There is a certificate of completion at the end, available from your account. It is proof you covered the material, not a regulated qualification.

What this course is not: The AZ-104 exam fee is not included in this price - you book that with the test provider when you are ready. It is not an awareness course: if the subject is completely new to you, something introductory will be better value.

Buyer guide

Is this the right course for you?

Best fit

Microsoft Azure AZ-104 Administrator Certification is a sensible shortlist choice when you want a structured route through the published syllabus rather than a general overview of the whole subject. Its 7-module plan starts with Azure Overview and Azure Tools, which gives you a clear indication of the assumed starting point. That shape is likely to be most useful for IT staff moving into cloud work and developers taking on deployment whose training need matches those topics. It is a weaker fit if you only need one isolated skill, or if an employer has specified a different standard, awarding body or practical assessment. Before buying, compare that requirement with the final modules on Azure Virtual Networks and Azure Monitoring and Backup as well as the course title.

How to use the syllabus

Treat the module list as a study plan, not just a contents page. Begin with Azure Overview and Azure Tools and note any terms or processes you need to revisit. Around the middle, Azure Storage acts as a useful checkpoint: if you can explain that material without looking back, move on; if not, repeat the preceding section before adding more. The later work on Azure Virtual Networks and Azure Monitoring and Backup is where you can test whether the earlier ideas connect. After each block, write a short example from your own work or a realistic scenario. That simple retrieval step makes self-paced learning more useful than clicking straight through to completion.

Check before enrolling

The listed study time is 35 hours; reserve more time if the subject is new to you or you plan to make detailed notes. Access is listed for 12 months, so set a completion date comfortably before the login ends. A completion certificate is stated, although its delivery format is not specified in the catalogue data. No CPD accreditation is stated. That is fine for skills development, but not when a workplace policy specifically requires accredited training. The AZ-104 exam fee is separate from this course and must be booked with the relevant test provider.
