MCA Microsoft Azure Developer w/ MCE Azure DevOps COMBO Training & Certification Boot Camp – 10 Days

Please note - Microsoft is updating courseware and courseware numbers, although content is expected to remain consistent.  Our camp uses the latest updates.

Certification Camps combines the NEW Azure Developer Role Based Certifications - MCA Azure Developer & MCE Azure DevOps Engineer Expert into a custom 10 day Microsoft Official Boot Camp. This camp focuses on actual job task for designing and building cloud solutions for applications and services. Students will learn how to develop apps and services by using Azure tools and technologies, including storage, security, compute, and communications. Students learn how to build apps end to end participating in all phases of development, from solution design, to development and deployment, to testing and maintenance.

Microsoft Azure Developers design, build, test, and maintain cloud solutions, such as applications and services, partnering with cloud solution architects, cloud DBAs, cloud administrators, and clients to implement these solutions.  Azure DevOps professionals combine people, process, and technologies to continuously deliver valuable products and services that meet end user needs and business objectives.  This camp covers topics related to these job roles.

The Microsoft Certified Azure Developer Associate boot camp is taught using Microsoft Official Courseware -

Microsoft Job Role-based Azure Certifications

Microsoft has aligned Azure certifications and training to job roles - focusing on Admin, Dev or Architect.
Each certification requires 2 exams and no certification has any prerequisite certification requirements.

Certification Camps has developed a comprehensive training / delivery format which focuses on learning beyond the core content accessible to any Microsoft training provider. Our program incorporates interactive demonstrations with explanations which go beyond the content of the book. Additional content, videos, labs & demonstrations are provided to expand on advanced topics - providing additional insight and perspective.  Certification Camps training is not the typical book & PowerPoint presentation found at any local training center.
