MCSE 2003 Certification Training Packages |
 IMPORTANT NOTE:
With the
release of Windows Server 2008, which took place in February, Microsoft has dropped the MCSE program.
The new program is Microsoft Certified Information Technology
Professional (MCITP): Enterprise Administrator. Although
MCSE training is still available, we strongly recommend that students
work towards the MCITP: Enterprise Administrator since this
certification will be in demand longer than the MCSE and teach the most
current technology. Students who register for
the live, online MCITP: Enterprise Administrator course
will learn about Windows 2008 and reference 2003 topics during class,
and will also
have free access to an entire recorded MCSE 2003 course for
reference. For detailed course information on the new
MCITP: Enterprise Administrator course, click
here.
Course Overview
This course provides a comprehensive learning track for system administrators to receive a thorough understanding of the features, uses and best practices of Windows Server 2003.
MCSE 2003 course topics include a detailed analysis of managing Windows XP as a desktop client, Windows networking, and Active Directory design and implementation. Also included is a detailed analysis of Windows network security issues. Additionally, the course is designed so that after earning their MCSE, students only need to pass the CompTIA Security+ exam to attain the elite MCSE:Security certification.
Our complete MCSE 2003 packages give you the expert knowledge and hands-on experience you need to pass all seven exams. For one low price, you‘ll tap into the most powerful learning system available anywhere. The Insider Training Multi-Path Learning System will maximize what you learn, and more importantly, how much you retain.
