I’m excited to announce the release of Exam AI-900: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals (beta). This exam is required for the Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals certification. It offers a great opportunity to prove your knowledge of common machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) workloads and your expertise in how to implement them on Azure.
Does this certification highlight your experience?
If you have a background that’s both technical and non-technical, along with a foundational knowledge of ML and AI concepts and related Microsoft Azure services, you’re in the right place. Data science and software engineering experience are not required, but some general programming knowledge or experience would be beneficial. The Azure AI Fundamentals certification can also help you prepare for other Azure role-based certifications, like Azure Data Scientist Associate or Azure AI Engineer Associate, but it isn’t a requirement.
Ready to prove your skills?
Take advantage of the discounted beta exam offer. The first 300 people who take exam AI-900 (beta) on or before August 7, 2020, can get 80% off market price! (Learn why beta exams are no longer free.)
To receive the discount, when you register for the exam and are prompted for payment, use code AI900Saratoga. This is not a private access code. The seats are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. As noted, you must take the exam on or before August 7, 2020.
