Here's
how we answer them.
Passing GH-900 earns GitHub Foundations, a Microsoft-administered, GitHub-branded certification at beginner level.
No. Microsoft applies its fundamentals policy to GH-900, which does not offer a recertification option, so the credential does not require renewal. Every other GitHub certification is valid for two years.
Two days of live, instructor-led training, delivered online or in person. That matches the length of the official GH-900T00-A course.
Yes. A $99 exam voucher is included with your enrollment.
You get 100 minutes. Microsoft does not publish a fixed question count for the GitHub exams. Passing is a scaled score of 700 out of 1000.
Seven skill areas, weighted as published by Microsoft: Understand Git and GitHub basics (25-30%); Work with GitHub repositories (10-15%); Collaborate using GitHub (10-15%); Apply modern development practices (10-15%); Manage projects with GitHub (5-10%); Understand privacy, security and administration (10-15%); Explore the GitHub community (5-10%).
Microsoft writes this exam for non-developers, developers and all GitHub users. Microsoft tags it for administrators, developers, DevOps engineers, solution architects and app makers, so it suits anyone joining a team that works in GitHub.
None. GitHub enforces no prerequisite for any of its exams, and GH-900 assumes no prior GitHub experience.
GH-200 GitHub Actions and GH-300 GitHub Copilot if you build and automate, or GH-100 GitHub Administration if you will run GitHub for other teams. Our GitHub Enterprise Certification Track covers GH-100, GH-200, GH-300 and GH-500 in five days.
Yes. The credential is GitHub-branded but the exam is administered by Microsoft and the course carries a Microsoft course number, GH-900T00-A, so we teach it from Official Microsoft Courseware.
Your retake is covered by our exam guarantee, and you keep 180 days of instructor support.
Yes. We run private cohorts online or at your site, and can adjust the agenda to your environment.

After years in IT security and obtaining CompTIA Security+, the need for CISSP certification became clear during job searches.
The CISSP certification is hard for even the most experienced security professionals because it covers eight areas.
Cybersecurity is not just a buzzword but an immediate necessity for organizations globally.
With cyber threats becoming more sophisticated and frequent, the demand for skilled cybersecurity professionals has never been higher.
The short answer is yes, you can pursue CISSP without five years of experience. However, there is a critical distinction.
I get asked this question at least three times a week. People call Training Camp, email me directly, or corner me at conferences.
