SITER administers the certification program and is responsible for awarding the Certificate of Completion. The Society of IT Engineers & Researchers is known as SITER. It is a Norwegian organization dedicated to provide accelerated training for working professionals, industry experts, students and job seekers.

To train our candidates for a variety of roles like cloud developer, cloud administrator, or cloud security specialist, depending on their preference and interest, we offer a combined and tailored Microsoft curriculum. This training program will serve as a fantastic starting point for a career in Microsoft technology.

Before awarding the Certification, we verify that the enrolled candidates are competent and have acquired new information and abilities. We usually have formal assessment and activities in the form of assignments and projects. Candidate’s knowledge will be validated during the project demonstration and presentation. The successful candidates will get the tag ‘SITER Certified Professional’ to recognize them in the job market.

Everyone who is interested in switching a career with Microsoft technologies and cloud computing is welcome to enroll in this program. This program will be useful for experienced software engineers and IT professionals/ students/ job seekers.

Since the certification program is designed to satisfy everyone’s need, you can manage in your own schedule. We have a sample timetable plan that you can find in this link. You can adapt or modify the given sample timetable plan as per your convenience.

Example:
If you are a job seeker and free from other assignments, stick to our full-time timetable plan as you can learn during the day.

If you are a working professional or university student and can only find time on the weekends and in the evenings, then please adhere to our part-time timetable schedule.

Visit our Time Table Plan web page for more details.

This certification program will operate in a hybrid format, allowing candidates to study on their own schedule with self-paced learning materials, video demos, and labs in addition to a live online instructor (qualified Microsoft Certified Trainer with PhD Degree) and live project supervisor for all technical supervision.

The certification program should be completed on time. In our case, you must complete it in 1 month with a Certificate of Completion. You will receive another one month of access to the career support and e-learning portal. During this time, you can prepare for your job or career advancement. We will provide 1-to-1 support as part of the post-study program. After 2 months, you cannot access the e-learning portal and materials.

Yes, our candidates can sit for well-known Microsoft Certification examinations worldwide. With the aid of our training, they will be able to pass the Microsoft exams for both role-based (AZ-104, AZ-204) and fundamental (DP-900, AZ-900) certifications.

That depends on your career goals and areas of interest. We can offer you some guidance.

(1) Would you like to take on the role of Administrator? Then take AZ-104 Exam. This is appropriate for people who don't enjoy coding.

(2) AZ-204 is ideal for the Developer to create, manage, run, monitor, and optimize Web applications in the cloud.

(3) DP-900 is appropriate for data administrators and can also be used to advance into roles as data scientists and data engineers.

(4) The AZ-900 test is intended for anyone who wants to show that they understand cloud computing and how to create and manage Azure resources and services.

After completing this program, our learners will be qualified to take one or more exams mentioned above.

You can do Microsoft certification exam online or at a Pearson VUE test center. You will be able to take an exam from home if that is more convenient for you. We will assist you after you enroll with us.

Training will be provided by the Microsoft Certified Trainer. University professors and IT experts will be part of the program to supervise the student projects and to volunteer the professional activities.

There are activities (assignments) related to each lesson and a capstone project.

The assignments are designed for self-practice without any direct supervision and assessment involved. However, the instructor will be available for any technical assistance for the assignment completion.

On the other hand, the capstone project will be fully supervised, evaluated by the instructor/ external panel, presented by the students and feedback will be given for the improvement.

The students can publish the assignments and projects in the Git (as the Portfolio). We will be evaluating the project using a rubric and grading criteria set by the SITER academic team.

Our capstone project will be the end result of your certification program and that will be the critical turning point in your career. You'll learn how to work together (remember CICD – Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery), solve problems, and use different skills effectively.

You will have the chance to create cloud apps during the capstone project. You will learn how to develop and deploy scalable and secure cloud applications.

Sample projects for the consideration:
• Deploy and manage an e-Commerce Shopping Application like Amazon.
• Deploy and manage Chat Application like WhatsApp.
• Deploy and manage Web API Applications like Booking.Com, Facebook and Weather-Forecast-App.

Remember, there is no single technology involved in developing a large complex application. It’s a mix of tools and cloud technologies involved.

Some of the features of cloud-based Capstone project are:
• Deploy a scalable web application to handle high level of web traffic and to optimize the app during peak hours.
• A backend database (Azure SQL Database) to store structured data (like Customer data, Product data)
• A backend database (Azure Storage, Cosmos DB) to store unstructured data (like Videos, Image, Live Chat, Streaming data etc.)
• RESTful API to bring data from external sources to your application.
• Run the application in the isolation (Azure Container Apps)
• Build the application in the cloud (Microsoft Azure)
• Secure the application (example: Microsoft Entra ID, Multi-factor Authentication)
• Make the things faster and easier (password-less login, social login)
• Optimize the Application - Make sure that the application is available close to the end user (Cache for Redis, CDN)
• Application monitoring and troubleshooting (Application Insights).
• Implement Event based solutions (Idea for IoT, Marketing Apps, Library System, Payment Processing)
• Implement Message based solutions (Ideal for e-Commerce and Logistic applications)
• Implement CICD Pipeline for collaborative development, continuous delivery and better customer experience.

All candidates must complete the assignments and capstone project in order to pass; an expert panel will assess these tasks. To pass, candidates must receive at least 50 out of 100 points for each task. Successfully completed candidates will move to the talent pool. Prospective employers will have access to the talent pool.
