The AI-901 blueprint, domain by domain

Microsoft Azure publishes exactly what the AI-901 tests and how much each part is worth. Here it is — every domain, its weight, the topics inside it, and the lessons that cover them.

Domain 1

Identify AI concepts and capabilities

42%
of the exam

The ideas behind AI solutions: responsible AI principles, how generative AI models work and how to choose and deploy one, and the common AI workloads — generative and agentic AI, text analysis, speech, computer vision and information extraction. Official weighting 40–45%.

3 topics in this domain
  • Describe principles of responsible AI
  • Identify AI model components and configurations
  • Identify AI workloads

Domain 2

Implement AI solutions by using Microsoft Foundry

58%
of the exam

Hands-on AI in Microsoft Foundry: deploying models, prompting, building lightweight chat and agent clients with the Foundry SDK, and text, speech, vision and Content Understanding applications. Official weighting 55–60%.

4 topics in this domain

How to revise for the AI-901

Reading every note front to back is the slowest way to pass. The exam is weighted, so your revision should be too — the blueprint above tells you exactly where the marks are.

Read in weight order, not page order

Implement AI solutions by using Microsoft Foundry carries the most marks on the AI-901, so it earns the most of your attention. Work down the blueprint from the heaviest domain to the lightest rather than starting at domain 1 and grinding forward.

First pass for coverage, second pass for recall

Read each lesson once without stopping to memorise — you are building a map, not a memory. On the second pass, read only the "what's tested" and key-takeaway blocks. If a takeaway surprises you, that lesson goes back on the pile.

Turn takeaways into questions

Cover a lesson's key takeaways and try to say them out loud from the heading alone. Recall you can produce under your own steam is the only recall that survives a timed exam; recognition on a re-read is not the same thing.

Stop reading when practice, not the page count, says so

Finishing the notes is not the goal — scoring is. Move to AI-901 practice questions early, then come back to the exact lessons your wrong answers point at. That loop is worth far more than a third read-through.
