Microsoft 70-346: Managing Office 365 Identities and Requirements is an online course for IT staff who plan an Office 365 rollout and manage its users, licences and identities. It follows the Microsoft 70-346 exam, the first of two exams for the MCSA: Office 365 certification. The course lasts 16 hours 7 minutes over 61 videos, with 200 test questions.
The course starts with planning, because a good Office 365 rollout begins before any users move. You set up a pilot, provision the tenant and build a test lab. You then manage users and licences, add custom domains, plan mailbox moves, and finish with directory sync and federation so on-premises accounts work in the cloud.
What you will learn
- Plan a pilot so you can test Office 365 before a full rollout
- Provision tenant accounts and build a test lab
- Add and manage users, licences, and security and distribution groups
- Set up custom domains and the DNS records they need
- Plan mailbox moves and choose a migration method
- Plan how Office clients reach users, and use telemetry to track them
- Sync on-premises directory accounts with the cloud
- Set up organisational federation with other services

About the 70-346 exam
Microsoft 70-346 checked your ability to manage Office 365 identities and plan for its needs, such as tenant setup, users and licences, DNS for custom domains, and directory sync. Microsoft issued it as one of two exams for the MCSA: Office 365 certification, with 70-347 as the second.
Microsoft has since retired this exam along with the rest of the MCSA range, and now offers role-based Microsoft 365 certifications. The identity and setup skills here are still the base of Microsoft 365 admin work.
