Changes to Azure Pass Distribution

Microsoft

Hello Learning Partners,

On the February Learning Partner Community Call we announced changes to the way that partners and learners access Azure resources. Over the last year, Microsoft has steadily reduced the number of courses that are eligible for Azure passes. That number will continue to be reduced until we move away from Azure Passes completely.  Currently, Azure Pass ordering access has been limited on Courseware Marketplace. By April 1, 2023 Azure Passes will no longer be available via this site.

Instead, partners should now be leveraging the services of our Authorized Labs Hosters (ALHs) to provide the labs experience for learners. By utilizing ALHs for this delivery we ensure that learners have consistent and quality experiences no matter their location.

We have created a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document that contains additional details including the courses that are impacted, how to contact our ALHs, and how to reach out if you have questions or would like to submit an exception to access Azure Passes. Please review this document and reach out if you have additional questions.
