Catalog Description:
This course introduces the student to the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 & 2012 Environment
and the networking technologies it supports. The student will become familiar with networking
and operating system concepts and the common tasks required to administer and support the
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and 2012 operating system in a network environment.
Rationale:
Windows Server is designed for those who want to pursue a career in the field of network
administration. It is intended for those who are new to server administration and to get those with
more experience up to speed with the new changes to Windows Server. Along with choosing the
correct server edition there will be instruction on how to install, configure, customize, manage,
and troubleshoot the server.
Course Goals:
The intention of this course is to make server administrators out of the students or give them a
broad knowledge of the Microsoft Windows Server operating system. The student should be able
to recognize which systems work well with others and use a method of deduction for
troubleshooting problems that occur. We are looking for students who will take the next step and
use their newly gained knowledge and skills and apply them in real world settings.
