I have been completing a series of posts to help people prepare for the MB2-716 certification (Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customization and Configuration). Here is a collection of links to all of those posts. I hope these might serve as a useful revision aid for the MB2-716 exam.
The MB2-716 certification is not easy to study for. At least in my opinion! The reason being the scope of the exam. Dynamics 365 is a large product and therefore customizing it is a big topic. But a fun topic and one you will really enjoy learning about.
