Overview

What this certification is and how the exam works.

The Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator (SC-300) certification validates the skills to design, implement, and operate an organization's identity and access management using Microsoft Entra ID. The exam covers implementing identities (users, groups, and hybrid identity), implementing authentication and multi-factor authentication, implementing Conditional Access, implementing access management for applications (app registrations, enterprise applications, and API permissions), and planning/implementing identity governance (entitlement management, access reviews, and Privileged Identity Management). The exam has 40-60 questions in 100 minutes, and Microsoft recommends hands-on experience administering identity solutions before attempting it.
