FAQs

What will you learn in this server administration and troubleshooting training?

Troubleshooting a server is an art and a science, and this course teaches both. Troubleshooting is more nuanced than turning it off and on again, and more challenging than following a checklist of steps. This course teaches you the right way to think about troubleshooting and you'll practice the best ways to do it.

Who should take this server administration and troubleshooting course?

Students who are thinking about a career in IT should take this course, as should anyone who finds themselves in a position where they need to figure out problems with network equipment and get them working again. Even experienced server administrators and network administrators who want to do better diagnostics and remediation should take this course.

Is this training in server administration and troubleshooting associated with any certifications?

This course is designed to help learners prepare for CompTIA certification exams, but the material on the course isn't specifically aligned with any exam. Plenty of jobs and certifications require an understanding of the right mindset and approach to professional troubleshooting, and this course can supplement learning plans designed for all of them.

What certification should you consider after taking this course in server administration and troubleshooting?

The certifications to consider after taking this server troubleshooting course are from CompTIA. For people early in their career, the IT Fundamentals+ is designed to help you find out if the IT career field is a good fit. The A+ is a broad, entry-level IT cert and Server+ is a specialization cert in server administration.

Why should you take this server administration and troubleshooting training?

You should take this course in troubleshooting servers because too many people who work inside and outside of IT seem to think that troubleshooting is a mindless exercise.
