Liam Cleary [MVP, MCT]

Architecture, Development, Security, Hacking and anything that I deem as important

Passed an exam and became an MCT

by ·

These past few weeks have been crazy busy with travel, for clients and then last week speaking at SPTechCon in San Francisco. This week I finally got to be at home, to catch-up no normal work and family life, as well as take an exam I have been preparing for. I took the MS-500: Microsoft 365 Security Administration exam and passed, granting the title of “Microsoft 365 Certified: Security Administrator Associate“, sounds super exciting right? The exam itself was complicated, with lots of tough questions and a lab where you have to prove you know how to do it, in a live tenant.

All in all, was a good one to study for and it did help that I create the MS-500 course for the guys over at Skill Me Up 🙂

Also this week I achieved one of my other goals for the year. I became a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT). This has been a bunch of work over the past few years, creating courses for Pluralsight, Opsgility / Skill Me Up and LinkedIn Learning. I am honored to be an MCT and look forward to what else this year holds 🙂
