No, the security measures in place require an authenticator app. SMS text messaging and phone
call authentication methods are vulnerable to phishing attacks resulting in identity compromise,
so they cannot be used. To improve Microsoft’s security posture, more secure authentication
methods must be used.

Thank you. But these are training tenants, so why are such draconian security levels required?
This has been very short notice. I have to teach MS-102 shortly, and currently have no device I can install an authenticator app on. I'm having to arrange for my employer to supply a suitable phone and it might not arrive in time for the course.
