Replacement course: AB-210T00: Accelerate sales pipelines with AI in Dynamics 365
The MB‑280 series is being retired and replaced by AB‑210 to better align with the modern, AI‑driven Dynamics 365 Sales role. MB‑280 covered a broad Customer Experience scope, including Customer Insights, but AB‑210 (Accelerate sales pipelines with AI in Dynamics 365) is intentionally Sales‑focused, emphasizing AI, Copilot, and agent‑assisted workflows used by sellers and sales administrators today. While Customer Insights is no longer part of the certification exam scope, Microsoft will continue to offer self‑paced online training for Customer Insights and is planning a new set of Applied Skills to validate hands‑on expertise in that area independently.
