Feedback about MS-102 retirement
TL;DR: I don't think you should retire the MS-102 as it really is a big downgrade losing and expert M-365 administor certification just for it to be replaced by an unrelated and under leveled AI Services administrator one. Hello community, This is my first post and I think it's a good time to open a thread to share some feedback about the retirement of the MS-102 exam and certification and I encourage others learners and users to do the same. For those who don't know It was announced last June 25th that exam MS-102 and Microsoft 365 Certified: Administrator Expert are retiring October 2026 replaced by AB-650 Microsoft 365 Certified: AI Services Administrator Associate, exam beta on July 26. You can check the announcement here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/skills-hub-blog/microsoft-credentials-roundup-june-2026/4528350?WT.mc_id=studentamb_165290 I was shocked to read that because last week I scheduled my exam and I didn't see any notice about future retirement. I just rechecked today and there isn't still any update on the retirement on the MS-102 cert or exam pages: Cert page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/m365-administrator-expert/ Exam page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/exams/ms-102/ So even today, lot's of users are scheduling the MS-102 exam right now without knowing that it is expected to be retired soon I think's it's a weird move to retire an expert Microsoft 365 administrator certification just for it to be replaced by just an associate certifciation AI Services Administrator Associate. So we lose and expert certification abount managing M365 and we can only get an associate certification about AI services in it's place I think it would've better to have AB-650 as an additional certification, maybe even a prerequisite for the M365 Administrator Expert just like MS-700 or the SC-401 Lot's of recruitments department look for expertise about managing M365 and MS-102 take a big part on lot's of admins resumes to provee their knowledge about managing M365, so we won't only lose a cert or exam, we lose a way to prove knowledge about managing M365 at an expert level. I've read lot's of users complaining about this retirement and I hope you could get feedback about it and rearrange this move. Thank you for reading.
Remote display not changing to 1920 x 1080
With initial versions of Mixed Reality Link the remote display in the Meta Quest was looking great, crisp and big, but suddenly it stopped doing that. Since the latest update of Mixed Reality Link the display keeps the same resolution from my physical monitor, which makes it look squeezed and with big horizontal black bars in the Quest window.

Teams feedback
When marking an assignment in teams - the pupils get a feedback notification. The mark and comment need to be more prominent - they're there - but not at all obvious, and I end up with some resubmitting work that was totally fine, just because they think its the original assignment that they forgot to submit! So 1) Make the feedback more MORE obvious 2) If not 'returned for revision', warn the student if they 'hand in again'. Ideally, let me set by default that 'returned' work should have that button removed. 3) If 'returned for revision' let me record the first, and revised marks in 'grades'.Feedback requested for VS Code Educator Community
The Visual Studio Code team is hoping to create a centralized community for educators who use the editor to ask questions, share best practices or resources, and learn from each other. The team also hopes to use this as a platform to share features and demos of VS Code for common educational scenarios.
Students viewing feedback before teacher hits "return"
Hi I have just tested the functionality and as some other people have identified, students can view feedback as and when teachers add comments or highlight the attached documents in an assignment. As a teacher, there are times when this is okay, but other times when it would make Teams unsuitable. When students submit exams or coursework teachers need the ability to edit and provide feedback within the document (by adding comments, or highlighting) in draft mode, before it is visible to the students. Since this has been an identified issue since 2018, as far as I can see from previous comments, I was hoping that there is a workaround or a setting that can be applied to achieve this. Please confirm. Best wishes, Gareth
