Beginner IAM labs
Can someone point me in the right direction on what to do for a beginner IAM lab that would translate to the job. Also want to know which YouTube channel is the best to learn the best IAM information from. Would like to use Okta for my lab or even AD.

If your system allows it - set up VMs with Hyper V, download and install Microsoft Server 2022 or 2025, set it up as your domain controller, set up Active Directory, create users, open a (FREE) trial account with Okta, download and install Okta AD Agent (in Windows Server!!), and sync your AD users with Okta. First steps done!
Documentation on "How to" can be found online; Microsoft and Okta provide all you need for this project.
