What you'll learn

  • Set up and manage your Azure account and workspace

  • Navigate Azure Portal and Machine Learning Studio

  • Prepare and upload datasets for training

  • Train models using AutoML with custom settings

  • Deploy and test models with real-time endpoints

  • Monitor performance, troubleshoot errors, and manage costs

What's in this course?

This course takes you through every step required to build, train, and deploy your first AI model using Microsoft Azure's platform. You'll start by setting up your Azure account, navigating the portal, and understanding key concepts such as tenants, subscriptions, and resource groups.

You’ll prepare a real-world dataset, upload it to your Azure Machine Learning workspace, and configure a compute instance. Using Azure’s AutoML features, you'll train a multi-class classification model, evaluate its performance, deploy it as a real-time endpoint, and test inference—all directly in Azure’s graphical interface.

Hands-on sections highlight practical use: you’ll resolve common deployment errors, explore monitoring tools, and learn to manage cloud costs. Throughout the course, you’ll interact with Azure Machine Learning Studio, AutoML, and additional Azure services for storage and compute, giving you valuable experience integrating Microsoft’s AI tools.
