Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Microsoft 365 certification path?
The path starts with MS-900 (Microsoft 365 Fundamentals), then branches into role-specific Associate exams — MD-102 for endpoint/device administration, MS-700 for Teams administration, or MS-721 for collaboration communications engineering — before the Expert-level MS-102 Microsoft 365 Administrator exam.
Do I need MS-900 before MD-102 or MS-700?
MS-900 is not required before MD-102 or MS-700, but it is a good foundation if you are new to Microsoft 365 administration concepts. IT professionals with hands-on M365 experience can go straight to the Associate exam that matches their role.
What is the difference between MD-102, MS-700, and MS-102?
MD-102 focuses on endpoint and device management (Intune), MS-700 focuses on Microsoft Teams administration and governance, and MS-102 is the broader Expert-level Microsoft 365 Administrator exam covering tenant-wide identity, security, and compliance.
