SYS-ED’s MS Servers
training program has been designed to address client-specific configurations:
administration, virtualization, cloud computing, and UNIX- and Linux- integration.
Depending on the experience and background of the target audience, a typical
training program will be 12 days in duration. The selection of modular content in the program
will reflect the version of
Microsoft servers and internetworked workstations installed and planned for
at the client location. Topics within a module can be taught to Microsoft certification
standards or specific to the client environment.
The program utilizes the full complement of training medium:
distance-learning, web-based,
and
technology driven classrooms. In order to
accommodate staff in remote locations,
a course can be conducted utilizing a
combination of classroom training and
distance-learning. At the client's discretion,
validation assessment and a final examination can be utilized.
The course modules and duration can be
used as a foundation to evaluate an integrated training program or
to evaluate a fast-track course.
