Microsoft 365 certification catalogue
MS-900 and Microsoft 365 fundamentals
MS-900 (Microsoft 365 Fundamentals) is the entry-level certification of the Microsoft 365 path. The programme covers cloud principles, Microsoft 365 services (Teams, Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive), the benefits of Modern Workplace solutions and security, compliance and privacy fundamentals. It is an excellent foundation for business profiles, support or those starting an IT career.
MS-102 and MD-102: Microsoft 365 administration
MS-102 (Microsoft 365 Administrator) is the Microsoft 365 administration certification: tenant, Entra ID identity, security, compliance, deployment and adoption. MD-102 (Microsoft 365 Endpoint Administrator) targets endpoint administration with Microsoft Intune, Autopilot, Windows Update for Business and mobile device management. These two certifications cover the core of the Microsoft 365 administrator role and are systematically requested in Swiss job descriptions.
Microsoft Teams: MS-700 and MS-721
MS-700 (Manage collaboration and communication with Microsoft Teams) targets Teams administrators on collaboration, policies, settings and governance. MS-721 (Plan, configure, and manage collaboration communications systems with Microsoft Teams) is dedicated to Teams Voice and enterprise telephony (Direct Routing, Operator Connect, Microsoft Calling Plans). These two certifications are essential in enterprise Teams deployments in French-speaking Switzerland, particularly in organisations migrating from Skype for Business or traditional PBXs.
Information protection, automation and AI: SC-401, PL-7002, AB-900
SC-401 (Information Security Administrator) targets the protection of sensitive information with Microsoft Purview in the AI era. PL-7002 (Create and Manage Automated Processes by using Power Automate) covers low-code automation of Microsoft 365 processes. AB-900 (Introduction to Microsoft 365 and AI administration) introduces generative AI and Microsoft Copilot in the context of Microsoft 365 administration. These modules complement the classic path on rising transversal topics.
Building your Microsoft 365 path by profile
For a profile discovering the ecosystem, MS-900 is the natural entry. For a Microsoft 365 administrator, MS-102 is the main target, complemented by MD-102 if you manage endpoints. For a Teams engineer, MS-700 is the entry, followed by MS-721 for Teams Voice profiles. For a compliance or information protection officer, SC-401 and our Purview modules (available in the Microsoft Security and Compliance catalogue) are priorities. For a low-code profile, PL-7002 introduces Power Automate. For profiles ramping up on AI, AB-900 is an excellent entry point. Our pedagogical team supports you in defining the path according to your role.

Microsoft Teams continues to evolve on hybrid collaboration and Teams Voice. Microsoft Purview is establishing itself as the unified platform for information protection and compliance (DLP, labelling, retention, eDiscovery, audit).
