This course introduces you to automation with PowerShell 7 – the cross-platform evolution that is installed alongside Windows PowerShell 5.1. You work with objects in the pipeline, query system information and turn individual commands into reusable scripts, functions and modules. Finally, you manage multiple systems at once via remoting and automate recurring tasks.
In this advanced course, you turn your own scripts into reusable tools for your team. You write advanced functions that behave like cmdlets, bundle them into tested modules and distribute them via a repository. This is complemented by robust error handling, connecting to REST APIs, and parallel processing for larger environments.
This course provides participants with the knowledge and skills required to manage SharePoint servers with PowerShell. Participants learn to manage everyday and automated tasks performed by SharePoint administrators.
Desired State Configuration has changed fundamentally with PowerShell 7: the Local Configuration Manager and pull server no longer exist there, while Microsoft DSC v3 describes the desired state across platforms in YAML or JSON documents. You learn which DSC variant to use for which purpose, write your own configurations and resources, and use DSC with WinGet Configuration and Azure Machine Configuration.
This course covers the entire work of a site owner from start to finish in an engaging and practical way, so that you can confidently plan and create new sites in SharePoint Online or manage your existing sites. Your goal is to learn how to make SharePoint Online relevant to your team by using the features of a site to share information and collaborate with your colleagues.
This course introduces participants to the administration of SharePoint Online in Office 365 and explains and demonstrates the configuration options for SharePoint Online.
SharePoint is a complex platform. A solid understanding of the platform enables participants to work more efficiently and effectively. In this course, participants learn how to use a SharePoint team site in SharePoint Online to access, store and share information and documents.
In this course, you set up Microsoft Teams Phone as a phone system for your organisation. You choose the right PSTN connectivity, configure Direct Routing, dial plans, calling features, auto attendants and call queues, and implement emergency calling correctly. Finally, you monitor call quality and resolve typical faults.
In three days, you build a virtualisation environment with Hyper-V on Windows Server 2025 – from a single host to a highly available cluster. You configure virtual machines, storage and networking, use GPU partitioning and dynamic processor compatibility, and safeguard operations with live migration, Hyper-V Replica and backup. The exercises use Hyper-V Manager, PowerShell and Windows Admin Center.
This course teaches the fundamentals of installing and operating Windows Server 2025 in a corporate network. You set up Server Core and Server with Desktop Experience, manage them with Windows Admin Center and PowerShell, build an Active Directory domain with DNS, DHCP and Group Policy, and deploy file services. Along the way, you get to know the new security defaults in Windows Server 2025, such as default SMB signing and Credential Guard.
This course builds on the fundamentals of Windows Server administration and covers the services that support larger, distributed environments. You plan Active Directory across multiple sites, harden Kerberos, LDAP and NTLM, build a PKI with AD CS, deploy file services with DFS, Storage Replica and SMB over QUIC, and run roles highly available in a failover cluster. Finally, you connect your on-premises infrastructure to the cloud via Microsoft Entra ID and Azure Arc.
Gives participants the knowledge and skills to deploy, configure and manage Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2017 and its related software components. Note: from version 2019 onwards the product is called Azure DevOps Server, and the cloud service Visual Studio Team Services is now called Azure DevOps Services.
Participants use the ALM (Application Lifecycle Management) tools in Visual Studio 2017 and Team Foundation Server (Azure DevOps Server since version 2019) or Azure DevOps Services (formerly Visual Studio Team Services) to plan, track, design, develop, test and deploy business value in the form of working software.
This two-day course gives developers who are already proficient in C# a solid introduction to .NET Core, which has simply been called .NET since version 5. The course focuses on core components of .NET that are used across many application areas alike: the runtime environment and class libraries, NuGet packages, file I/O and serialisation, delegates and events, memory management, and threading.
When Windows 11 fails to start, users cannot sign in, or updates fail, a systematic approach is what counts. You get to know the diagnostic tools in Windows 11 and narrow down faults in startup, hardware, networking, identity, applications and updates – locally, remotely and in environments with Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID and Intune. Many exercises show typical fault patterns from everyday support work.
In this course you install and configure Windows 11 for enterprise use. You plan editions and hardware, carry out clean installs and upgrades, join devices to Active Directory or Microsoft Entra ID, manage them with Group Policy, and use the security features of Windows 11. Management with Microsoft Intune is covered at an overview level and explored in depth in course MD-102.
Use Windows 11 confidently and efficiently in everyday work – in just one day. You get to know the interface, work with the Start menu, taskbar, Snap Layouts and virtual desktops, reliably find files and settings again, and set up the system to suit the way you work. The course is aimed at users, not administrators.
This workshop is aimed at anyone who knows Windows Server 2016, 2019 or 2022 and is moving to Windows Server 2025. You plan the upgrade and migration, check deprecated and removed features for their impact, and put the key innovations into practice in exercises – from the new AD functional level and dMSA, through tighter SMB and authentication standards, to GPU partitioning, Network ATC and hotpatch via Azure Arc.
This course focuses on the day-to-day operation of Windows Server 2025. You manage servers with Windows Admin Center, PowerShell and Azure Arc, maintain Active Directory and Group Policy, operate file services, control updates including hotpatch, and monitor, back up and harden your servers. Installation and basic configuration, Advanced Services and Hyper-V are covered in separate courses.
IIS 10.0 is the web server in Windows Server 2025 and the foundation of many enterprise applications. You set up websites and application pools, host ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core applications, secure access with authentication, TLS 1.3 and HSTS, manage IIS remotely and with PowerShell, and analyse errors systematically. To finish, you build a web farm with shared configuration.
