Microsoft Entra ID Hands-On Labs

About this video

This SkillsBuild video course shows you how to set up a free Microsoft Entra ID trial and work through the admin tasks IAM teams handle every week. It is the Lab step of the roadmap: you learn by doing, from creating users to building Conditional Access policies, and finish with work you can talk about in interviews.

What you'll learn

• Setting up a free Microsoft Entra ID trial tenant for practice
• Creating users and groups, including dynamic membership groups
• Assigning licences and admin roles with least privilege in mind
• Configuring authentication methods and MFA registration
• Building and testing Conditional Access policies in report-only mode
• Adding an enterprise application and assigning users for SSO
• Reading sign-in and audit logs to troubleshoot access problems

What's included

• Screen-by-screen demos in the Microsoft Entra admin center
• Step-by-step labs you follow in your own free trial tenant
• Common mistakes shown and fixed on screen
• A small project you can document and add to your portfolio

Who it's for

• Beginners who want hands-on practice after learning the fundamentals
• Microsoft 365 or helpdesk admins moving towards identity work
• Learners preparing for SC-300 who need practical experience

By the end, you'll have a working Entra ID lab and documented admin tasks to discuss in interviews.
