Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals
Microsoft certification for foundational AI solution development on Azure, requiring examination AI-901.
Licensing authority: Microsoft · Application information
Initial by examination
- Candidate Knowledge
- Conceptual Azure AI knowledge and foundational technical skills; Python syntax/programming and familiarity with Azure resources are the official candidate expectations, not an invented prior-credential prerequisite.
- Date Boundaries
- Official certification and initial-route inception/end dates are unpublished in the retrieved applicable requirement, so both remain null; April 15, 2026 dates the current English examination content, not the certification's inception.
- Fees
- Regional price and any taxes/offers are confirmed with the provider at registration; no fixed US price is inferred.
- Registration
- Use the official exam scheduling page and Learn profile; legal name must match Legal ID. A personal Microsoft account is recommended; organizational-account exam records may be lost on leaving the organization. Request required accommodations before scheduling. Online availability depends on the provider; online candidates must meet system/security requirements.
- Scheduling
- Rolling provider appointments, subject to availability; Pearson VUE permits no more than two concurrently scheduled Microsoft certification exams and scheduling no more than 90 days ahead. Normal individual/training-program delivery is Pearson VUE; academic candidates follow the officially offered Certiport option when present.
- Scope
- Current initial certification through the English AI-901 examination; not renewal or a state practice license.
Exam AI-901: Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals
- Passing score
- 700 on Microsoft's scaled technical-examination scale; not a percentage-correct requirement.
