I'm on a student subscription, and I'm doing a Microsoft course, "Machine Learning Operations Engineer Associate." For this I have to create a workspace, but I'm not able to create one in any region. This issue is preventing me from progressing with the course. Please help me with this problem.

Hi,

Azure for Students restricts which regions you can deploy resources to. Typically you are restricted to five different regions, and these vary for each person.

Please navigate to Azure Policy -- Authoring -- Assignments using link below:

https://portal.azure.com/#view/Microsoft_Azure_Policy/PolicyMenuBlade/~/Assignments

Click on assignment named Allowed resource deployment regions

Examine Allowed locations Parameter value for list of regions, similar to below (regions in screenshot are different than yours):

The regions shown in your Parameter value are the ones you are allowed to deploy resources to. Please try to create resources in one of these regions and let me know the results.

Please click Accept Answer and upvote if the above was helpful.

Thanks.
