This comprehensive Azure networking certification course prepares networking professionals to architect, implement and administer reliable Microsoft Azure networking infrastructure professionally.
AZ-700 Azure Network Engineer Certification Course
The AZ-700 course is the Azure networking certification course that prepares you for the Microsoft AZ-700 exam, Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions, which earns the Microsoft Certified: Azure Network Engineer Associate credential. It teaches how to design, implement and manage core Azure networking infrastructure, hybrid connectivity, routing and load balancing, network security, private access to Azure services, and network monitoring. It suits network engineers and infrastructure professionals who want to specialise in Azure networking and prove it with a recognised certification. The course is hands on, with labs that build real Azure network architectures, and the official exam fee is included in your course price. Logitrain has trained more than 15,000 professionals since 2004, and every course is backed by the price beat guarantee.
What the AZ-700 certification covers
The course follows the current Microsoft AZ-700 skills outline. You learn to design and implement core networking infrastructure such as virtual networks, IP addressing, DNS and peering, then build hybrid connectivity with site to site and point to site VPN, Azure Virtual WAN and ExpressRoute. From there you move into routing and load balancing with Azure Load Balancer, Application Gateway, Traffic Manager and Front Door, then secure and monitor networks using Network Security Groups, Azure Firewall, DDoS Protection, Web Application Firewall, Azure Monitor and Network Watcher, and finally design private access to Azure services with Private Link and service endpoints. These are the same domains the AZ-700 exam measures, so the course depth maps directly to what you are tested on.
Where AZ-700 sits on the Azure path
AZ-700 is an associate level certification focused on networking. If you are newer to Azure, start with the AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals course, which Microsoft recommends as the entry point. Many network engineers also hold the AZ-104 Azure Administrator course, which gives the general Azure administration grounding that makes AZ-700 easier. Once you hold AZ-700, a common next step is the AZ-305 Azure Solutions Architect course. You can compare every option on the Microsoft Azure courses page.
The Microsoft Certified: Azure Network Engineer Associate credential is the recognised proof that you can design and run production grade Azure networks, not just create a basic virtual network. It covers the work Australian employers actually hire for, including hub and spoke and Virtual WAN topologies, ExpressRoute, Private Link, application delivery and network security. Because Azure networking is a specialised skill, the certification helps you stand out for network engineer and cloud infrastructure roles, and it renews each year through a free online assessment on Microsoft Learn, so it stays current as Azure changes.
With Logitrain the official AZ-700 exam fee is included in the course price, so there is no separate voucher to buy later, unlike many providers who charge for the exam on top. You keep the digital course material, full time courses include mock tests to check your readiness, and the price beat guarantee means we will beat any competitor’s advertised price for the same course. Logitrain is an authorised Pearson VUE test centre, so you can sit the exam with us, at another Pearson VUE centre, or online through Pearson VUE online proctoring. You can train in person in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, in person on request in Adelaide, Perth and Canberra, or live online in real time anywhere in Australia, with the same trainer and material either way.
There is no formal prerequisite for the AZ-700 exam, so you can attend without holding another certification first. Microsoft does recommend a solid grounding before you start, and the course assumes you bring the following.
- A working understanding of networking concepts such as IP addressing, DNS and routing
- Familiarity with network connectivity methods such as VPN and WAN
- An understanding of hybrid connectivity, software defined networking, and resilience concepts including high availability and disaster recovery
- Experience creating and managing compute, storage and networking resources in Azure
If you are new to Azure, the AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals course is the recommended starting point, and the AZ-104 Azure Administrator course provides the administration experience that makes AZ-700 easier to follow.
Candidates can achieve this certification by passing the following exam.
- AZ-700: Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions, leading to the Microsoft Certified: Azure Network Engineer Associate certification
You can book and sit the exam within three months of finishing your course. Sit it at the Logitrain test centre, at any other Pearson VUE test centre, or online through Pearson VUE online proctoring from a private space.
Exam format: between 50 and 60 questions in a mix of question types including multiple choice, drag and drop, hot area and case studies, with some sittings including interactive labs. The exam runs for about 100 minutes, and the passing score is 700 on a scale of 100 to 1000. AZ-700 is the current version of this exam, and the certification renews each year through a free online assessment on Microsoft Learn.
You receive the Logitrain course material for the Microsoft AZ-700T00 Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions course, provided in digital format for flexibility and ease of use. Practise questions are included to help you prepare for the official exam.
