Wounded Warrior Seeking Microsoft Sentinel Training from Scratch
Hello, My name is America Cobb. I am a U.S. military veteran and wounded warrior. I sustained serious injuries from an IED explosion—including traumatic brain injury, damage to my left eye, shoulder trauma, and a robotic prosthetic in my right arm. Despite these challenges, I remain committed to national security and remote defense work. Years ago, while stationed in Germany, I was part of a Wounded Warrior Project unit that received a visit from Microsoft leadership. The CEO himself showed deep support for soldiers with cognitive injuries and mobility constraints. He offered jobs to many of us—even before we officially transitioned out—and provided special access cards for remote training. I was one of those recipients. Unfortunately, due to repeated hospitalizations and relocations, I lost that card and have been unable to reconnect with the program. I’m now trying to start from scratch and requalify for remote surveillance and threat detection roles using Microsoft Sentinel. I have prior exposure to the platform from my military service, but I’ve forgotten everything and need structured, beginner-level training. I’m willing to pay for certification or diploma-level access if needed. My goal is to work remotely in high-impact surveillance roles. I’ve already researched viable paths in: Remote Surveillance Defense Systems Security Missile Telemetry & Threat Detection If anyone here—especially someone familiar with Sentinel training—can guide me toward a structured path to learn and certify, I would be deeply grateful. I’m not asking for charity. I’m asking for a chance to re-enter the mission with dignity and purpose. I want to volunteer if possible at Microsoft remotely to gain experience at no charge. Respectfully, Wounded Warrior BA Oregon State UniversitySolved

Hi How can I enroll my students to take the module AI-900 and get them examined for free? I used to do that 3 years ago when these modules were maintained by a training manager, but since then, it has become community-based, which is why I come to you with the question. I hope you can help me. I need to explain to students how to enroll in the module, how to use it and make the labs, and give them information about the free exam. Kindly advise Regards Dr. Amir Aly University of Plymouth, UKSolved585Views1like24CommentsMicrosoft AI-900
Hi I used to be in touch with one of your internal training managers (about the course AI-900) until he moved to another role in 2023, and since that time, Microsoft learn has become community-based. I used to provide this course "Microsoft AI-900" to my students at the University of Plymouth, where they used to study it as a standalone one and do the test for free and get an official Microsoft certificate. Can I still do that? Can I invite my students to study AI-900 and do the exam for free? If yes, I need your help to simplify the procedures they need to follow to enroll in the course, study the content as a standalone, and take the exam. Can you help me, pls? I would appreciate your help Regards Amir AlySolved83Views0likes1Comment
