FAQs

What will you learn in this Windows Server 2012 training?

You'll learn how to maintain a Windows Server 2012 infrastructure in this training. This course was designed to teach server administrators how to use the tools and resources that Windows Server 2012 makes available for configuring user and group management, maintaining network access and ensuring data security. This course doesn't cover Windows Server 2012 installation or advanced services, but the bulk of Server 2012 administration tasks are covered.

Who should take this Windows Server 2012 course?

Server, network and systems administrators who might ever work with Windows Server 2012 should take this course, since it isn't supported and familiarity with it is rare. If you ever have to use Windows Server 2012, odds are good that no one else will be able to show you how.

Is this training in Windows Server 2012 associated with any certifications?

No – this Windows Server 2012 training was developed to help learners pass the (retired) MCSA: Server 2012 and MCSE: Server 2012 Core Infrastructure certifications. Those certs were from about a decade ago, when Microsoft was focusing their certifications on extremely deep knowledge of individual pieces of software.

What certification should you consider after taking this course in Windows Server 2012?

Microsoft doesn't offer any certifications related to Windows Server 2012, so this course won't help you directly with earning a certification. But the administration concepts and the Windows Server framework you'll learn from the course could help with earning certifications like Microsoft Certified: Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate.

Why should you take this Windows Server 2012 training?

You should take this Windows Server 2012 training because the out-dated and unsupported server OS is so old that it's hard to find answers to even simple questions through search engines. If there's any chance you'll work with Windows Server 2012 at any point in your career, learn it early.

Who is this for?

This All Windows Server 2012 training is considered administrator-level Microsoft training, which means it was designed for systems administrators with three to five years of experience with systems infrastructure.

What our learners say

Having access to on-demand labs that I could spin up instantly was very helpful. I didn’t have to have a home environment with a bunch of virtual machines spun up. Or worry about destroying things.
