What is Microsoft Learn for Educators (MSLE)?
MSLE is a global Microsoft initiative that helps tertiary institutions bring technical and AI training directly into the classroom by blending academic excellence with real-world industry standards.
Thanks to this collaboration, Richfield students now have access to top-tier certifications that are highly sought-after by employers, including but not limited to the following:
- Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900): A powerful introduction to cloud computing and the Azure platform.
- AI Fundamentals (AI-900): A beginner-friendly certification exploring the basics of artificial intelligence.
- Power BI Data Analyst (PL-300): Training in data analysis and business intelligence using Microsoft’s Power BI tools.
In addition, Microsoft Applied Skills credentials allow students to complete project-based, real-world challenges and earn a Microsoft-verified credential by passing online assessments. These skills include building AI vision solutions, designing intelligent document processing tools, working with Azure OpenAI services, and more emerging tech skills.
