Updated Recording Policy - Effective Immediately
Hello partners, We've spent the last few months collecting feedback to evolve our recording policy. Our goal is to open up opportunities for TSPs to record and distribute content to meet the learners where they are - which is not always live, instructor-led training. At the same time, we've aimed to strike the right balance by continuing to support MCTs to promote fair compensation and ensuring their perspectives remain integral to the process. Below you'll find the new recording policy, effective immediately. This language will be incorporated into our TSP Program Guidelines document on the Learning Resources site in the near future. We'll review this language on the June 24th Community Call. Please let me know if you have any questions. Updated Recording Policy Microsoft Training Services Partners (TSPs) are permitted to record, distribute, and otherwise monetize Microsoft training content in formats that best serve their learners, provided they meet the requirements below. Microsoft training content includes courseware, video, and other training materials developed by Microsoft. All training using Microsoft official content must be delivered by a qualified Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) in good standing. Official Microsoft content may only be recorded and delivered by MCTs operating through an authorized TSP. Unofficial or non-Microsoft training content may be recorded and delivered independently by an MCT without TSP affiliation. Partner Responsibilities and Content Governance TSPs are responsible for ensuring that all recorded training content remains accurate, relevant, and aligned to the latest Microsoft courseware and product updates. Microsoft will be reviewing TSP-produced content at the company’s discretion and may require the removal or discontinuation of recorded content that is determined to be outdated, misaligned with current learning objectives, or no longer representative of Microsoft technologies or guidance. KPI Eligibility Recorded training content, including on-demand or pre-recorded offerings, is not eligible for Training Services Partner Program Key Performance Indicator (KPI) credit. KPI attainment remains tied to live, instructor-led delivery that meets established program requirements for quality, interactivity, and learner validation. Privacy Compliance All recording, distribution, and commercialization of training content must comply with applicable privacy laws, contractual obligations, and Microsoft intellectual property policies. TSPs are responsible for obtaining appropriate consent from learners and MCTs participating in the recordings and ensuring lawful use and distribution of all recorded materials.NCE in Azure Government
Can anyone give me a status on NCE for Azure Gov? We have a large number of older legacy subscriptions we'd like to get off of and onto Azure Plans and as I read it until NCE is available in Gov that isn't going to be an option unless we do a resource migration (which is expensive and an exercise the customer shouldn't have to go through to get access to the cost management tools). Thanks in advance!New Training Services Partner Onboarding Update
Hello new TSPs. We are currently updating the onboarding process to provide better communications around process and timing. While we work to update, please send me a private message if you have completed the onboarding form and you are currently waiting on a response. I anticipate this workaround to last for a few weeks and for us to have a new process in place in January. Once the update is complete and the normal process resumes, I will delete this thread. Thanks, DanReal-World Migration: Windows 7 & Server 2012 R2 to Azure using ASR & Azure Migrate
It's exciting to see the continued innovation in Azure migration and modernization with the introduction of Azure Copilot Migration Agent. This announcement resonates with a recent customer engagement where I successfully migrated legacy Windows 7 VM and Windows Server 2012 R2 workloads to Azure. As part of the project, I utilized Azure Migrate to perform comprehensive assessments, generate detailed migration reports, analyze workload dependencies, and develop a well-structured migration strategy. For the server migration, Azure Site Recovery (ASR) played a key role in enabling a seamless transition with minimal downtime and reduced operational risk. The combination of Azure Migrate and ASR simplified the overall migration process, provided valuable insights for decision-making, and helped ensure a successful outcome for the customer. Seeing AI-driven capabilities being integrated into the migration journey is a significant step forward. Features such as automated discovery, intelligent recommendations, and accelerated planning have the potential to further streamline complex migration projects and help organizations modernize with greater confidence. I look forward to connecting with other community members, sharing experiences, and learning how others are leveraging Azure Migrate, ASR, and Azure Copilot Migration Agent in their modernization initiatives.

Unable to complete Partner Center verification – no workspace created (Ref: 715‑123160)
Hi, I am trying to register as a Microsoft Partner, but my verification was blocked with the following message: Reference number: 715‑123160 Transaction ID: 2a392997-f7e1-4325-842c-04eb313593e5 The issue is that because the enrollment was blocked at the trust‑verification stage, no Partner Center workspace was created, so I cannot open a support ticket. The “Contact Support” link takes me to a page with no option to submit a request. I am the Global Admin of the tenant. Could you please escalate this to the Partner Trust & Safety team so they can review my verification and advise on next steps? Thank you.
