Build practical skills for managing Microsoft 365 groups, configuring custom domains, and supporting client connectivity in Microsoft 365 environments. In this course, you’ll learn how different Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Entra group types support collaboration, access management, licensing, and administration. You’ll also explore dynamic groups and how membership can be automatically managed based on user or device attributes.

You’ll learn how to manage groups using the Microsoft 365 admin center and PowerShell, restore deleted groups, configure group-based licensing, and establish group naming policies and governance practices. Group-based licensing can automatically assign or remove licenses as users are added to or removed from groups. The course also covers custom domain planning and verification, DNS requirements, split DNS considerations, automatic client configuration, connectivity protocols, Outlook connectivity, and network configuration. You’ll explore the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer and Microsoft 365 Support and Recovery Assistant to help troubleshoot common connectivity and configuration issues. Through conceptual explanations and practical demonstrations, you’ll develop the knowledge needed to manage Microsoft 365 groups, domains, licensing, governance, and client connectivity in real-world organizational environments.
