Posted by ruchika on January 12th, 2019

Skill Gap Statistics

  • 50M people who are needed to fill open technical jobs by 2030.
  • 800M individuals need to learn new skills by 2020.
  • 40% employers report that skill shortage have a negative impact on their business.
  • 60% students will do jobs that don’t exist.

Addressing The Skill Gap

  • Role based
  • Aligned experience
  • Recognition
  • Simple and discoverable

New Azure Certifications As Per Roles

  • An azure administrator is responsible for implementing, monitoring, and maintaining Microsoft azure solutions, including major services related to compute, storage, network and security.
  • Microsoft azure is the cloud for modern businesses. Expand your azure development skills to meet future business needs as a Microsoft certified azure developer associate.
  • Master the skills needed to design solutions that run on azure. A Microsoft azure solution architect must have expertise in compute, network, storage and security.

Changes In Questions Asked 

  • In the starting of an exam, you’ll get a question to state your experience with Azure networking with three options; beginner, medium and expert.
  • However, in contrast to what you’re thinking, the intention of this question isn’t for choosing the difficulty level of questions you have to face.
  • Instead, Microsoft just wants to know when you’re actually taking the exams (for measuring purpose only).

 Moving Away From Mcqs

  • Drag & drop questions
  • Case studies
  • Put things in order
  • Performance testing
