The DBA credential for people whose databases moved to Azure. Five domains, and none of them theoretical.
Exam Protection Included
Authorized Training
4 days built for database administrators and data platform engineers running SQL Server, Azure SQL Database or Azure SQL Managed Instance. You leave exam-ready, not just trained.
DP-300 is the administrator credential for Azure SQL in all its forms, and it is unusually practical. This four-day boot camp covers all five domains: planning and implementing data platform resources, implementing a secure environment, monitoring and optimizing database resources, automating tasks, and planning high availability and disaster recovery. Hands-on labs run every day.
Official Microsoft Courseware, plus Training Camp’s own exam prep built on top of it. You get the vendor’s material and our exam-day method.
$165 exam voucher included with your enrollment. No surprise costs, no separate booking.
Practice questions mapped to Microsoft’s 5 domains, instructor-led review of every answer choice, and a readiness check before you sit.
Immersive classroom instruction with direct instructor access, hands-on labs and peer collaboration.
The same instructors and curriculum, delivered live from anywhere on our virtual learning platform.

The $165 DP-300 voucher is part of the price rather than an add-on, so nothing is owed on test day whether you sit it in class or later.
If you do not pass DP-300 on the first attempt, your retake is covered, so a single bad morning does not cost you the certification.
Hosted Azure SQL environments spanning managed instance, single database and SQL on a VM, so all three deployment models get lab time.
Questions tied to each of the five published DP-300 domains rather than a generic database pool, so weak areas surface before test day.
Your instructor stays reachable for a full 180 days after class, which is exactly when the DP-300 questions that actually matter turn up.
Written for DBAs bringing SQL Server experience to Azure, so the week concentrates on what changes rather than what you already know.
A structured path designed for working professionals.
Each day builds on the last—momentum is everything.
5 domains, taught in exam weight order, with labs and a readiness review before you sit.
The credential, the capability, and the continued readiness — all in one boot camp.
Real questions from real professionals who passed.

how we answer them.
Passing DP-300 earns Microsoft Certified: Azure Database Administrator Associate. The exam title is Administering Microsoft Azure SQL Solutions.
4 days of live, instructor-led DP-300 training from Official Microsoft Courseware, delivered online or in person. Class runs 9am to 5pm, the labs are hosted so you need only a laptop, and test day is scheduled for Thursday.
Yes. Your $165 DP-300 exam voucher is included with your enrollment. Nothing further is owed on test day, and the voucher stays valid if you would rather book the exam later.
DP-300 asks between 40 and 60 questions, and you get 100 minutes. Passing is a scaled score of 700 out of 1000. You sit it at a Pearson VUE test center or online with a proctor, whichever you prefer.
The skills outline is: Plan and implement data platform resources (15-20%); Implement a secure environment (20-25%); Monitor, configure, and optimize database resources (20-25%); Configure and manage automation of tasks (15-20%); Plan and configure a high availability and disaster recovery (HA/DR) environment (20-25%).
Database administrators and data platform engineers running SQL Server, Azure SQL Database or Azure SQL Managed Instance. If you are unsure whether your background fits, our advisors will talk it through with you before you book.
Microsoft does not enforce a prerequisite, but DP-300 is written at Associate level and assumes hands-on experience. Talk to us if you are unsure whether you are ready.
Your retake is covered by our Free Retake Guarantee. You return for the full DP-300 course at no cost and sit the exam again, keeping 180 days of instructor support to work through whatever tripped you up.
Yes. We run private cohorts online or at your site, and can adjust the agenda to your environment. Team training details are here. Private DP-300 cohorts run to your own schedule, and the agenda can lean toward the parts of the blueprint your team actually uses.
Many of our courses are approved. Eligibility for the DP-300 boot camp depends on the program and your location, so check our military and veterans page or contact us before enrolling.
Azure SQL runs in three distinct shapes, and organizations moving off on-premises SQL Server need people who understand all of them rather than just one.
The difficulty is scope. Managed instance, single database and SQL on a VM each behave differently for high availability, tuning and automation, and all three are examinable.
Database administrator, Azure data platform engineer, and on-premises SQL Server DBAs whose estate is moving to Azure.
