What about students (and trainers) who don't have smartphones and don't have access to Microsoft Authenticator, or any other authenticator app? What are we supposed to do? Why use this level of security on a 365 tenant that's only used for a training course? It seems pointless and will just cause problems. Please, reconsider this.

Yes, at the moment a phone is required to set up MFA Authentication. We are working on a
solution for scenarios where learners are unable to use an authentication app, but for now
learners will be required to use an MFA authentication app in order to access the labs impacted. These security
steps are necessary to safeguard the Microsoft environment.Thank you.
