• Business-level understanding of Data & AI technologies without needing to be the hands-on architect

Certification requirements

• Microsoft partner program, GTM, solution area, or sales readiness is highly valuable 

• Business-level readiness on Microsoft Fabric, Azure AI, Azure AI Foundry, and AI transformation scenarios 

• Evidence of GTM execution and partner activation is more important than deep technical certification
