According to the World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report 2023, employers estimate that 44% of workers’ skills will be disrupted in the next five years. As AI, Cloud, and new technologies continue to advance, many organisations are taking a skills-based approach to finding the right people.

Introducing Microsoft Applied Skills

To address this issue, Microsoft have recently announced the introduction of Microsoft Applied Skills, new credentials to attest in-demand technical skills.

These courses:

  • validate your knowledge in skill sets specific to critical business challenges
  • help you demonstrate your proficiency by completing real-world tasks in interactive labs
  • end with online, on-demand, product-specific assessments that lead to credentials
  • offer a signal of trust to organizations, colleagues, hiring managers, and recruiters through the Microsoft-verified credentials you can earn

You can take these courses online, from the comfort of your home. They are very hands-on; they help you develop highly specialised skills in a task- and scenario-based manner.

At Firebrand, we are proud to be one of the few companies in the world to be designated a Microsoft Cloud Partner. All our Microsoft Applied Skills courses are taught by Microsoft Certified Trainers and include access to labs.
