We're excited to bring you exclusive Microsoft MVP instructor-led training, here on Udemy!
Bored of slides? Good, because there aren't any in this course.
Developed and taught by a Microsoft MVP and Certified Trainer, this course demonstrates the whole job of managing Windows devices with Microsoft Intune: enrolment, configuration, security, updates, applications, and Windows Autopilot. Every lesson is a live walkthrough of the real portals, recorded in 2026 against the current admin centre. When something takes a minute to apply, you'll see that too (sped up, you're welcome).
FULLY UPDATED FOR 2026. Autopilot has changed significantly, and this course covers both sides of it: classic Autopilot deployment profiles and the new Autopilot Device Preparation, with a live end-to-end build of each so you can see exactly what your users would. If you've been putting off understanding Device Preparation, this is the fastest way to catch up.
WINDOWS UPDATES, DONE PROPERLY. A whole new section on update rings, Windows Autopatch and Hotpatch; including why Hotpatch means most monthly updates no longer need a restart, and the honest caveat about the quarterly ones that still do.
MODERN APP MANAGEMENT. Win32 packaging with the Content Prep Tool, the Enterprise App Catalog, automatic app updates, and third-party patching with Robopack. Deploying the app is the easy part; keeping 400 devices on the current version is the bit this course actually solves.
SECURITY THAT HOLDS UP. Antivirus policies, App Control for Business, Security Baselines, BitLocker and Firewall, plus Windows Hello for Business and enrolment restrictions that stop personal devices sneaking into your tenant.
NO SLIDES. Just hands-on, experience-based learning in the real admin centre, with the mistakes left in where they teach something.
TWO FULL MD-102 PRACTICE EXAMS. 100 scenario-based questions across two 50-question tests, each with a full explanation of why the right answer is right and the wrong ones are not. The first test sticks to what the course teaches; the second stretches across the full exam syllabus, and it is meant to be harder. This course alone will not make you exam-ready, but you will know exactly where you stand.
COMMUNITY VIDEOS. Bonus community videos, linked in key lessons, to continue your learning once you've completed the course.
Even if you have never opened the Intune admin centre, this course will teach you what you need to know to manage Windows devices with confidence.
Who this course is for
Learners with little or no Intune experience who want to learn from live demonstrations rather than theory
Admins with some Intune mileage who need to catch up on the 2026 changes: Device Preparation, Autopatch, Hotpatch, the Enterprise App Catalog and App Control
Experienced MDM admins (Intune or otherwise) who want the tips, gotchas and real-world habits that only come from years of doing this badly first
What you'll learn (bullets)
Deploy, manage and secure Windows devices with Microsoft Intune, from first enrolment to full application deployment
Set up Windows Autopilot the 2026 way: classic profiles, the new Device Preparation policies, and when to use which
Manage Windows updates properly with update rings, Windows Autopatch and Hotpatch; fewer reboots, happier users
Deploy apps with Win32 packaging, the Enterprise App Catalog and auto-updates, so version drift stops being your problem
Protect devices with Antivirus policies, App Control for Business, Security Baselines, BitLocker and Firewall
Test yourself against two full-length 50-question MD-102 practice exams with full explanations for every answer
Requirements
No Intune experience needed; every lesson is demonstrated live, so you can learn by watching before you try anything
An Intune test tenant and a test Windows device (or VM) are useful but optional; this course does not require a lab to follow along
