Who it's for

Two starting points, one destination

You're moving into IT

You come from another field and the amount of things to learn is paralysing. We cut it down to one path, build your first lab, and give you something concrete to say in an interview.

You already work in IT

You're in support or infrastructure and want to specialise in the Microsoft cloud. We look at your real environment problems and at what actually gets you to the next role.

You're preparing a certification

MS-900, MS-102, SC-300. We build a study plan that fits your week, and I answer the questions the official material leaves open.

Topics

What we can work on

Bring a specific question and we'll go deep on it, or bring none and we'll start from where you are.

How it works

Three steps, no back and forth

1

Pick a time and pay

Choose a slot that works for you and pay in the same step. The booking is confirmed immediately — no emails going back and forth to find a date.

2

Tell me what you need

The booking form asks what you want to cover. I read it before we meet, so the 45 minutes start on your problem instead of on introductions.

3

We meet, then you get the summary

45 minutes of live work with screen sharing. Afterwards you receive a written summary with the next steps.

About me

Ricardo Silva

Senior Microsoft 365 consultant, based in Dublin

I've worked with Microsoft 365 for more than eleven years, today as a senior consultant in Ireland. That time has been spent inside real company tenants: migrations, SharePoint governance, identity and security, and automation with PowerShell and Graph.

I started from zero, as a Brazilian rebuilding a career in Europe. I know exactly what it feels like to open the admin portal for the first time and understand none of it — and how much faster it goes when someone experienced sits next to you for an hour.

  • MS-700 — Teams Administrator
  • MD-102 — Endpoint Administrator

What this page is, and isn't

This page offers individual mentoring and teaching only. I don't provide consulting, migration, implementation or production support services here. Everything demonstrated is done in my own lab environment.

FAQ

Questions people ask first

Do I need any experience to book?
No. A good part of the sessions are with people who have never worked in IT. Tell me where you're starting from in the booking form and I'll plan the hour around that.
What language will the session be in?
English, Portuguese or Spanish — whichever you prefer. Just pick it in the booking form.
Do I need to buy a Microsoft licence?
No. For anything hands-on we use a free trial tenant, which is enough for everything we'd cover in a session.
Can I reschedule or cancel?
You can reschedule free of charge up to 24 hours before the session, using the link in your confirmation email. Cancellations more than 24 hours in advance are fully refunded.
Do you do migrations or consulting for my company?
No. This is individual mentoring and teaching only. I don't take on implementation, migration or support work for companies through this page.
What if 45 minutes isn't enough?
Then book another one when you need it. There's no package to commit to and no subscription — each session stands on its own.
