Course Description

Microsoft software typically makes up a large percentage of an organization’s overall estate. For this reason, ensuring that your licensing is as optimized as possible can lead to substantial cost savings. However, understanding the ins and outs of Microsoft’s complex software licensing rules is challenging for businesses of all sizes and industries. Negotiating a “good” price is just one component to success. Knowing how to assign the most optimal license to match your organization’s use case and understanding best practices for maintaining that optimization along with the compliance “gotchas” to look out for along the way can lead to long-term license management success. Designed to take your Microsoft licensing knowledge to the next level, this course offers an in-depth review of several key Microsoft licensing agreements and product licensing models, with real-world scenarios and hands-on application that will allow you to directly transfer your skills from the classroom to the workplace.
