Microsoft Short Skills Programme (AZ-900 & AZ-204) 2025

If you’ve been thinking about breaking into the cloud space, this might be the perfect chance. Dynamic DNA is inviting applications for its 4-month Microsoft Short Skills Programme, focused on AZ-900 (Fundamentals) and AZ-204 (Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure). The programme starts in 2025 and applications close on 3 October 2025.
Build the Skills Employers Are Looking For
The cloud isn’t the future anymore — it’s the present. Companies everywhere are racing to hire people who understand Microsoft Azure and can build real-world solutions on it. This programme helps you do exactly that.
You’ll start with the basics through AZ-900, where you’ll cover cloud concepts, services, and security. Then, through AZ-204, you’ll go deeper — learning how to create Azure Functions, manage web apps, use Azure storage effectively, and design solutions that are scalable and secure.
No endless theory. Just hands-on work that shows you how things actually fit together.

- Have a 3-year IT qualification with programming as a major
- Be unemployed
- Be a South African citizen under 35
- Live near Randburg, Johannesburg
- Not already be on another Seta-funded programme
