Are the SC-300 hands-on labs free?
Project 1 (Implement Identities) is completely free, including unlimited access to Cert Buddy for that project and the manual GitHub commit workflow. The remaining 4 projects unlock for a one-time payment of $49.
Do I need a Microsoft 365 trial for SC-300 labs?
Yes, several SC-300 features (Conditional Access, PIM, Identity Protection) require Entra ID P2, available via a free 30-day Microsoft 365 E5 trial. All labs are designed to complete within the trial period.
How does the GitHub portfolio auto-commit work for SC-300?
When you mark a lab step complete, HandsOnCert commits your configuration screenshots and policy definitions directly to your own GitHub repository via OAuth. Each project gets its own folder with a unique enrollment code.
How long does the SC-300 path take to complete?
The 5 projects take approximately 10 hours total, covering identity management, authentication and access, application access, identity governance, and monitoring — the same domains tested on the SC-300 exam.
Is SC-300 a good pairing with AZ-104?
Yes. SC-300 (Identity and Access Administrator) specializes in Microsoft Entra ID, while AZ-104 (Azure Administrator) covers broader infrastructure administration including a portion of identity. They pair well for administrators whose roles involve both infrastructure and identity governance.
Is SC-300 the same as SC-900?
No. SC-900 (Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals) is an entry-level conceptual exam with no prerequisites. SC-300 (Identity and Access Administrator) is an associate-level exam requiring hands-on configuration of Entra ID identity solutions. SC-900 is a good starting point before SC-300.
