Many learners benefit from instantaneous communication and feedback. Whether you tune in live or watch the videos on demand, our 60-to-90-minute Learn Live episodes take the time to guide learners through lessons and provide guidance on Microsoft Learn modules. Have a nagging uncertainty about evaluating classification models? Don’t know where to begin implementing your Cosmos DB SQL API account?

Your learning path is waiting

If your goal is to get certified in your role, Learn Live sessions are your chance to practice technical skills in an interactive environment with Azure experts and other developers from around the world. Every episode is closed-captioned and offered in several languages.
