Microsoft Learn
Microsoft Learn in my eyes is highly under rated, I want to show you why there is more to it than you have probably realised.
Learning Paths
Learning paths are a great way to explore a topic, there are currently around 1000 learning paths, so what are you waiting for, there is something for everyone in there, which means you. #alwaysbelearning
Filter
You can filter your learning by –
- Product
- Roles
- Levels
- Type (Learning Paths or Modules)
Bookmarks
Bookmark your learning choices and come back to them, you owe it to yourself to have learning goals and to finish the learning path or module, don’t start it and leave it, become good at finishing and not good at starting.
Collections
Collections are where you can group your own collection of learning paths and modules which might relate to a specific learning goal you have. This is perfect if you are studying for an exam or want to know more about a more general topic like server-less as an example.
Achievements
If you complete a module within a learning path you earn points and badges along the way and you can see these listed under achievements which can be found under your profile and looks like so: –

I myself have realised I haven’t been using Microsoft Learn for a while and there is a lot of great new content which I am off to check out now.
Let me know which level your on – I’m currently on level 8.
I would have to admit since my first look and initial impression on it’s release it’s come some way with some of the nice interactive pieces, however it really depends on the appetite of the individual to want to develop

As an avid user of MVA, my criticism is that there aren’t enough videos. It seems like the majority of the learning paths are text and image based. Nothing wrong with that, probably a lot of good information, but videos are why I used MVA so much. In 2014 I didn’t want to read a 5 page article about how to get started with MVC, I wanted to watch two renowned Microsoft developers/evangelists talk about it and dive into the code. What we have now with Learn is basically a MSFT documentation site.
That’s good feedback tbh – never really thought of it like that – and I agree with you Paul
