Introduction to AI in Azure (AI-901T00) is a free beginner course from Microsoft Learn, online. It has no certificate. Microsoft Learn doesn't say how long it takes.
A sensible free start for developers and students heading for the Azure AI Fundamentals exam. Two self-paced learning paths, about 9.5 hours, cover generative AI, agents, NLP, vision and RAG, then building in Microsoft Foundry. Caveats: there's no certificate, the exam is separate and paid, and you'll want some Python and cloud basics. It's also unclear whether the exercises need an Azure subscription. For a free non-Microsoft option, try Introduction to Generative AI from Google.
