    Thank you for the update.

    But if I may, the Azure Passes does give more flexibility during the course delivery, for preperation and demo.

     

    Sometime, some attendees ask for something on top

    or

    as a trainer, I also want them to experiment a bit further on some aspect, that is beyond the lab.

     

    Would be nice if there will also be a solution for that.

    So that trainer can do the extra miles for participants/customers

    Especially in AZ-400 Azure Passes are used to purchase for the Build Agents in the DevOps Organizations of the students
