# Partner delivery and certification practicum: synthetic exercise worksheet

Curriculum reviewed: 2026-10-25. Use public or synthetic data only.
Do not include client evidence, credentials, private identifiers or raw receipts.

## Goal
Eight hours of learning plus a four-hour assessment are proposed. Four independently evaluated tasks are worth 25 points each; all four must pass for 100/100 machine eligibility, followed by independent human review and separate human award authority. This is a proposed first-party consultancy credential; it neither certifies Microsoft partnership status nor issues a client's reporting certificate.

## Outcomes
- Deliver client-owned evidence safely.
- Isolate client organisations and pack rights.
- Complete the proposed four-task practical standard.
- Distinguish review eligibility, human award and optional directory publication.

## Synthetic case
Describe a Sales report built from order headers and order lines. State which grain you intend and which independently established expectation you would compare.

## Review each lesson
### 1. Scope a responsible engagement
Define handover, evidence custody, acceptance and support boundaries without unapproved commercial promises.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

### 2. Keep clients isolated
Separate membership, exact grants, quotas, entitlements and client evidence.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

### 3. Use packs within rights
Verify publisher trust, versions, licensed ranges and handover permissions.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

### 4. Rehearse the four practical tasks
Demonstrate frozen oracle discipline, mismatch detection, drift detection and exact-plan no-write refusal.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

### 5. Prepare independent assessment
Pin engine, fixture, expectation lock and allowed commands before each fresh scratch exercise.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

### 6. Move from eligibility to award
Require independent assessor review and separate authorised human award; payment does not award competence.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

### 7. Manage renewal and publication
Apply approved expiry/revocation and optional directory consent without exposing client information.
Expected output: a written explanation naming the observation, its scope and its limits.
Your notes:

## Failure case
Generated definitions exist but a required execution observation is missing. Explain why qualification cannot pass and name the next required observation. Do not fabricate a receipt or change a frozen expectation.

## Evidence table
| Claim | Expected observation | Available evidence | Missing/stale | Next owner/action |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | | | | |

## Limitations
This worksheet is a completion check, not live qualification, business acceptance or a professional award. Pro assessment and certification policy remain planned. Keep optional live results in customer-controlled custody.
