This is a portfolio project I decided to create upon concluding the Microsoft Azure AI Engineer certification to showcase part of what I learned.
Microsoft regularly updates their courses as new technologies emerge, and the focus of the certification exams shifts accordingly. In the most recent version of the AI-102 exam, which is the one I sat, there’s a heavy emphasis on Generative AI, including Prompt Flow. That’s why I chose to build a Prompt Flow project: It highlights one of the most important takeaways from the course – and it also happens to be genuinely useful.
In my review of the AZ-900 course, I complained that it was overly theoretical and that more exercises would have been beneficial for reinforcing key concepts. The more practical nature of AI-102 confirms the correctness of my intuition.
I just finished the Microsoft Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) course.
Because this was a course created by Microsoft, I expected it to be well-produced and free from the kind of sloppiness I’ve encountered in other online courses – and it delivered. The presentation was clear and well-structured. I quite liked how new ideas were often introduced through relatable analogies and everyday examples, which made the material more accessible and easier to grasp.
