Official vendor courseware, taught as published.
Format Live, Instructor-Led
Duration 4

The Windows Server 2019 is Hard. We Know How to Pass It.

This 4-day boot camp covers identity, networking, storage, virtualization, high availability, security and migration for Windows Server 2019, with hands-on labs and real-world scenarios throughout. Microsoft retired its Windows Server 2019 exams in January 2021, so the week is measured by what you can build, and you finish with a Training Camp certificate of completion. If you want a Microsoft credential, our Windows Server Administrator Boot Camp (AZ-802) is the exam path.

Official Microsoft Courseware.

We teach from Microsoft’s authorized courseware rather than third-party material, so the content tracks what Microsoft publishes for Windows Server 2019.
