Microsoft Entra ID Administration Course in Doha, Qatar

Administer Microsoft Entra ID, formerly Azure Active Directory: manage users and groups, configure hybrid identity, enforce MFA and Conditional Access, integrate applications and govern privileged access.

Course overview

The Microsoft Entra ID Administration course in Doha, Qatar teaches administrators to manage identity and access in Microsoft's cloud. Microsoft Entra ID, formerly Azure Active Directory, is the identity service behind Microsoft 365, Azure and thousands of integrated applications. Learners manage users, groups, licenses and administrative units, configure hybrid identity with Microsoft Entra Connect Sync or Cloud Sync, and secure sign-in with multifactor authentication, passwordless methods and Conditional Access policies built on Zero Trust principles.

Labs take participants through enterprise application integration with single sign-on, app registrations, external collaboration with B2B guests, and identity governance with access reviews, entitlement management and Privileged Identity Management. Sign-in logs, audit logs and Microsoft Entra ID Protection risk reports are used to investigate suspicious activity.
