Sault College of Applied Arts and Technology, a unique and publicly funded institution, is nestled in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. Since its inception in 1965 as the Ontario Vocational Centre, the college has continually evolved, now offering a diverse array of programs. These include apprenticeship, adult retraining, post-secondary education, etc., catering to the educational needs of approximately 4,500 students. The institute aimed to enhance its Cyber Security and Network Architecture and Security Analytics programs by incorporating comprehensive Microsoft Azure Cloud training. However, had to deal with Microsoft Azure credit limitations for long-term courses. Also, the college’s live IT Cloud operations infrastructure as a training platform was not feasible for students due to security concerns and operational constraints.
