Diagnostic
A calibrated baseline test, taken solo, that maps exactly where you stand across authentication and access management, user identities, and identity governance before you study anything.
SC-300 Exam Comparison
Udemy's SC-300 course teaches Entra administration on video at a low price. Edureify measures your identity skills, adapts the plan, and predicts your ready date.
Edureify and Udemy solve different halves of SC-300 preparation. Udemy gives you material to work through. Edureify adds the parts it leaves out: diagnostic baseline test, predictive readiness score and adaptive daily roadmap. The practical difference is that you finish with a predicted ready-by date instead of a completion percentage. Pick Udemy if you mainly need content at the lowest price, and Edureify if you need to know when you are actually ready to sit the exam.
Exam SC-300 — Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator (SC-300) Features compared 9 Udemy From $12.99 on sale Edureify $49–$599 Updated 3 November 2026
SC-300 is Microsoft's associate exam for Identity and Access Administrators. It validates that you can implement and manage Microsoft Entra identities, set up authentication and Conditional Access, plan workload identities for apps and services, and automate identity governance with access reviews, entitlement management and Privileged Identity Management. It is aimed at administrators who run Entra ID day to day, including hybrid and external-identity setups. The exam lasts 100 minutes, Microsoft does not publish the question count, and the passing score is 700 out of 1000. SC-300 is active; the English exam was updated on October 28, 2026 with minor changes and no retirement has been announced. Edureify's plan budgets roughly 52–68 hours of study.
Edureify runs on one loop: a Diagnostic maps exactly where you stand across authentication and access management, user identities, and identity governance before you study anything, an adaptive Roadmap turns that into a day-by-day plan weighted toward your actual gaps, a self-paced Practice Loop of questions, mock exams, and spaced review builds mastery topic by topic, and an Intervention layer steps in the moment your progress stalls. Every session feeds back into a live Readiness Score that predicts when you'll be exam-ready and names the specific topics still holding you back — not a completion percentage frozen at the end of a course.
A calibrated baseline test, taken solo, that maps exactly where you stand across authentication and access management, user identities, and identity governance before you study anything.
A day-by-day plan built from your diagnostic and rebuilt automatically as you progress — weighted toward your actual gaps, not a generic syllabus.
Practice questions, mock exams, and spaced-repetition review, self-paced, with mastery tracked across authentication and access management, user identities, and identity governance.
A live score with a predicted ready-by date and the specific topics still dragging it down, recalculated after every session.
Edureify also runs as a team platform for L&D leaders: every team member gets the same self-paced diagnostic-to-readiness loop, and managers get a live dashboard showing each person's Readiness Score, predicted ready-by date, and what's specifically holding them back — plus a portfolio view for reporting on SC-300 readiness across the whole team.
Udemy's SC-300: Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator course gives you self-paced video coverage of Entra ID, Conditional Access, workload identities and governance, usually from $12.99 during sales. You keep lifetime access, can ask the instructor questions on the Q&A board, and can compare it against other SC-300 courses using public ratings.
Udemy has no platform-wide diagnostic, readiness score or adaptive study plan for individual learners; instructor practice-test courses sold separately show scores by attempt. SC-300 mixes many similar settings, from authentication methods to PIM and access reviews, and a course on its own will not tell you which of them you would miss on exam day.
Edureify's Diagnostic measures you across authentication and access management, user identities and identity governance first. The roadmap then works on your weakest SC-300 objectives, and the Readiness Score and ready-by date update after each session, with an AI tutor to unpick tricky Conditional Access scenarios.
Udemy's SC-300 courses come from independent instructors; check that the one you choose reflects the October 2026 update and includes practice questions.

The AI tutor explains Conditional Access and authentication scenarios in context.
SC-300 courses are often on sale for a small fraction of official training prices.
Pre-recorded lessons fit around a working administrator's schedule.
A strong SC-300 course plus hands-on Entra practice and separate practice questions can be enough for many administrators. What the course will not do is tell you which SC-300 objectives you are still likely to miss.
Eligible Udemy courses, SC-300 ones included, fall under its 30-day refund policy. Udemy has no pass guarantee.
You would judge it from practice-test scores, usually from a separately purchased SC-300 practice-test course. Edureify's Readiness Score gives a predicted ready-by date instead.
Udemy fits SC-300 candidates who manage Entra ID already, want low-cost video lessons and will gauge readiness themselves with practice tests.
Edureify fits SC-300 candidates who want their identity skills measured, a plan that adapts to weak spots like governance or workload identities, and a predicted ready date.
If budget allows, an SC-300 Udemy course for explanations plus Edureify for measurement covers both needs.
