Multi Factor Authentication requirements

From October 2024, all Microsoft Administration portals for Azure and Microsoft 365 will require Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for access, including the command-line interface (CLI).

What do I need to do?

By attending a course that uses Azure and/or Microsoft 365 administration portals, you may need to set up MFA to complete the course labs.

Before the course:

  • Ensure you have a device (e.g. mobile phone) that supports MFA apps.
  • Install Microsoft Authenticator (or similar MFA software) if you haven't already.

During the course:

  • Your instructor will guide you through the MFA setup for lab access.

This requirement is in addition to any other technical prerequisites for your course.
