A Microsoft-maintained collection of free technical learning resources for academic communities, covering Azure, AI/ML, data science, web development, IoT, and DevOps. It aggregates semester-long curricula, workshop guides, hackathon materials, certification prep, and K-12 content links.

Use cases

  • find free curricula for teaching a cloud or AI course
  • get resources to run a hackathon
  • prepare students for Azure certification exams
  • find workshop materials for a tech bootcamp
  • locate K-12 computer science teaching content
  • learn Azure, data science, or web development as a student
  • find tech talks and challenges for a student club

When to choose

  • you are a faculty member building a tech course or workshop
  • you are a student or lifelong learner seeking structured free learning materials
  • you are organizing a hackathon and need guides and challenges
  • you want curated links to Microsoft Learn and GitHub Education content

When to avoid

  • you need runnable software, libraries, or tools rather than curated links and courseware
  • you want vendor-neutral content without an Azure/Microsoft focus
  • you need a single self-contained course rather than an index of external resources
