Description
This course covers the requirements of the GH-900: GitHub Foundations exam.

Note: Microsoft took over the provision of the "GitHub Foundations" exam as of 1 July 2025. The requirements for each domain completely changed on that date.

Please note: This course is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Microsoft or GitHub.

This course is the foundation for the GitHub Certificate GH-900 "GitHub Foundations", using an Microsoft exam, and focuses on GitHub repositories, and collaboration, contributing and working with GitHub and Git.

We'll start off by working with GitHub. We'll create a GitHub account, explore the user interface, create a repository, and look at settings and permissions.

We'll then work with files in a repository. We'll add, edit and delete files, use GitHub Desktop, and fork and create and manage Pull Requests.

We'll then use GitHub for project management. We'll create and manage issues, labels and milestones, implement DevOps practices, use GitHub for code review, and create and manage GitHub Projects.

We'll then look at other features in GitHub. We'll look at repository security, administer GitHub organizations, teams and discussions, and see how we can engage with the GitHub community.

Finally, we'll look at Git commands. On your computer, we'll initialize a Git repository, add and commit changes, push and pull changes, understand branching and merging, and clone a repository.

No prior knowledge is required - we will download all programs and sign up for GitHub for free.

Once you have completed this course, you will have a good introductory knowledge of Git and GitHub and how to collaborate using GitHub. And with some practice,you could even go for the official GitHub certification GH-900- wouldn't that look good on your CV or resume?

So, without any further ado, let's have a look at how you can use the Udemy interface, and then we'll have a look at the objectives for the exam and therefore the syllabus for this course.

Who this course is for:
- This course is for you if you want to understand what is available on Git and GitHub.
- By the end of this course, you could enter (and hopefully pass) GitHub's official GH-900 exam.
- Wouldn't the "GitHub Fundamentals" certification look good on your CV or resume?
