Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-901)

Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals Certification Training Course AI-901

Prepare for Exam AI-901: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals — the updated fundamentals credential that replaces AI-900. Accumentum maps the course to Microsoft’s published skills measured as of 15 April 2026.

Course focus: Responsible AI, generative and agentic AI concepts, and implementing lightweight AI solutions with Microsoft Foundry — not the retired AI-900 skills outline.
Course Overview

Build foundational Azure AI skills on the AI-901 outline — not AI-900.

Accumentum’s Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals Certification Training Course (AI-901) prepares learners for Exam AI-901: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals. Microsoft is evolving the Azure AI Fundamentals certification: after 30 June 2026, earning the credential requires passing AI-901. AI-900 remains the prior exam.

The published audience is people at the beginning of a career in AI solution development. Microsoft expects conceptual knowledge of AI solutions in Azure, foundational technical skills to work with them, knowledge of Python coding syntax and programming techniques, and familiarity with Azure resources.

This page uses Microsoft’s published skills measured as of 15 April 2026. Accumentum does not invent exam prices or unofficial question counts.
