Completed AZ-700 Learning Path - Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions

Today I completed the Design and Implement Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions learning path: Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions Logo

The course is a total of 9 hr 25 min and consists of the following 8 modules:

Badge Module
Introduction to Azure Virtual Networks Introduction to Azure Virtual Networks
Design and implement hybrid networking Design and implement hybrid networking
Design and implement Azure ExpressRoute Design and implement Azure ExpressRoute
Load balance non-HTTP(S) traffic in Azure Load balance non-HTTP(S) traffic in Azure
Load balance HTTP(S) traffic in Azure Load balance HTTP(S) traffic in Azure
Design and implement network security Design and implement network security
Design and implement private access to Azure Services Design and implement private access to Azure Services
Design and implement network monitoring Design and implement network monitoring


While the learning materials are good, all of the exercises are videos where you click or use arrow keys to progress to the next task, despite all being in the Azure Portal. This provided a good demo but was a big step down to the last Cisco U. course where the labs provided a real hands on experience.

I’ve also gone through the new exam prep videos (1 hr 25 min), as well several runs of the practice assessments (50 Qs each), and will be booking the exam soon in order to earn the Azure Network Engineer Associate certification.
