Microsoft 365 Administrator Training (MS-102)

This course will be retired by Microsoft on 30 November 2026. It is replaced by the official Microsoft course AB-650T00 Administer Microsoft 365 and AI services.

Administering a Microsoft 365 tenant requires cross-functional skills spanning identity management, data security, compliance and governance of collaborative services. Without a solid command of these areas, organizations face security breaches, compliance failures and inefficient adoption of Microsoft 365 tools.

The MS-102 Microsoft 365 Administrator training prepares you to manage the entire Microsoft 365 ecosystem with confidence. Over 5 intensive days, you learn to configure Microsoft Entra ID, administer Exchange Online, SharePoint and Teams, deploy data loss prevention (DLP) strategies and drive compliance. This official Microsoft course, delivered by MCT-certified instructors with integrated cloud labs, leads directly to the MS-102 certification. ITTA, a Microsoft Learning Partner based in Geneva and Lausanne, provides a professional training environment with personalized support.

Microsoft Entra ID and identity management

Identity management is the foundation of any Microsoft 365 infrastructure. You learn to configure Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), set up hybrid synchronization with Entra Connect and deploy conditional access policies. The course also covers multi-factor authentication (MFA), RBAC role management and identity protection with Entra ID Protection. These skills allow you to secure resource access while providing a seamless experience for users.

Collaborative services administration

A Microsoft 365 administrator must master the configuration and optimization of all suite services. The training covers in depth the administration of Exchange Online (transport rules, connectors, anti-spam), SharePoint Online governance (sites, permissions, sharing policies) and centralized Microsoft Teams management (messaging, meetings, application policies). You learn to manage these services from the Microsoft 365 admin center and PowerShell, applying Microsoft-recommended best practices.

Microsoft 365 tenant security and compliance

Data protection and regulatory compliance are major challenges for Swiss and European organizations. The MS-102 training teaches you to deploy Microsoft Purview for classifying and protecting sensitive information. You configure DLP (Data Loss Prevention) strategies, retention labels and compliance policies. The security component covers Microsoft Defender for Office 365, incident management and threat monitoring. You leave with a complete understanding of the security and compliance tools built into Microsoft 365.

MS-102 certification and career prospects

The MS-102 exam is the required path to obtain the Microsoft 365 Certified: Administrator Expert certification.
