Microsoft Courses and Certifications in Australia

Microsoft certification courses teach cloud, security, productivity, data, and business technology skills for recognised credentials, stronger careers, workplace performance, and success.

Choose Your Microsoft Learning Path

Microsoft technologies underpin the way most Australian organisations operate, from desktops and data centres through to cloud environments, making Microsoft certifications some of the most valuable credentials an IT professional can hold. Logitrain delivers instructor led Microsoft training across Azure, Microsoft 365, security, data and Windows Server, supporting everyone from beginners taking their first certification through to experienced administrators and architects. Our training is hands on and based on live Microsoft environments, so you practise real configuration and administration tasks rather than only learning theory. Each course is aligned to current role based Microsoft certification exams, ensuring the skills you build match what employers expect and what you will use on the job.

Microsoft Certification Pathways

Microsoft organises its certifications by job role, grouped under a few main areas. Here is how they fit together, and where to start in each.

Microsoft Azure certifications

Azure is Microsoft’s cloud platform and the busiest certification area. Most people begin with Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) Course, which needs no prior experience, then move to the Azure Administrator (AZ-104) Course for day to day cloud administration. From there, the Azure Solutions Architect (AZ-305) Course suits those designing cloud solutions, and the Azure Security Engineer (AZ-500) Course suits people focused on securing Azure environments.

Microsoft 365 certifications

Microsoft 365 covers the productivity and workplace platform. The Microsoft 365 Administrator (MS-102) Course suits people managing the platform, and the Endpoint Administrator (MD-102) Course suits those managing Windows devices. You can see the full pathway on our Microsoft 365 and Office 365 certification page.

Security, compliance and identity certifications

These certifications focus on protecting Microsoft environments. Security, Compliance and Identity Fundamentals (SC-900) is the starting point, the Security Operations Analyst (SC-200) Course suits people working in a security operations role, and the Identity and Access Administrator (SC-300) Course suits those managing access and identity. The Cybersecurity Architect (SC-100) sits at the top of this group.

Data and AI certifications

For data and artificial intelligence roles, Microsoft offers Azure Data Fundamentals (DP-900) and AI Fundamentals (AI-900) as entry points, with role based certifications for data engineering, database administration, Power BI data analysis and AI engineering above them. Talk to our team about the current Microsoft data and AI pathway, since Microsoft updates this area regularly.

Microsoft Courses Online and Across Australia

You can study Microsoft with Logitrain in the classroom in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, live online in real time from anywhere in Australia, or in house at your workplace. Live online students join the same class as the room, see the trainer and work through the labs in real time, rather than watching a recording. Classes run full time on weekdays, or part time on weeknights and weekends, so you can train around your job.

Which Microsoft Certification Is Right for You

With dozens of Microsoft certifications, the trick is matching the certification to the role you want, not collecting badges. If you are new to the cloud, start with a Fundamentals certification such as Azure Fundamentals or Microsoft 365 Fundamentals, since they assume no prior experience and give you the language for everything that follows. If you already work in IT, move straight to the role based certification that matches your job, whether that is administrator, developer, architect or security. If you are not sure, tell our team what you do now and where you want to go, and we will map a sensible path rather than sell you a stack of courses you do not need.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Microsoft courses does Logitrain offer?

We cover the main Microsoft certification pathways, including Azure, Microsoft 365, security and identity, and data and AI. That ranges from Fundamentals certifications such as AZ-900 and MS-900 through to role based certifications such as the Azure Administrator (AZ-104), the Azure Solutions Architect (AZ-305) and the Microsoft 365 Administrator (MS-102).

Is the Microsoft exam included in the course price?

Most of our Microsoft certification courses include the official exam in the price, and you can sit it at our own authorised Pearson VUE test centre rather than arranging it separately. Ask us about the specific course you are interested in, since inclusions can vary.

Which Microsoft certification should I start with?

If you are new to Microsoft technologies, start with a Fundamentals certification such as Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) or Microsoft 365 Fundamentals (MS-900), since neither assumes prior experience. If you already work in IT, move to the role based certification that matches your job.

Can I do Microsoft training online?

Yes. Every Microsoft course we run is available live online in real time, so you can join from anywhere in Australia and take part in the same class as the room, including the hands on labs.

How long do Microsoft courses take?

It depends on the certification. Fundamentals courses often run over one to two days, while role based certifications such as AZ-104 usually run over four to five days, with part time options that spread the same content across a few weeks.

Where can I do Microsoft training in person?

We run classroom Microsoft courses in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. If you are in Adelaide, Perth, Canberra or a regional area, you can join the same courses live online, or ask us about in house training at your workplace.

Do you still offer MCSA and MCSE?

No. Microsoft retired the MCSA and MCSE certifications and replaced them with role based certifications across Azure, Microsoft 365, security and data. We train the current certifications, and our team can tell you which one replaces an older qualification you may have been looking for.
