    Real questions from IT pros deciding if this course fits.
    Here's how we answer them.

    This course is for IT pros who are new to Windows Server or are about to start supporting it: help desk staff moving up, junior sysadmins, network admins picking up server work, and anyone who just inherited a Windows Server 2022 environment.

    Participants will learn to install and configure Windows Server 2022, automate server deployments, manage Active Directory Domain Services, implement hybrid identities, secure the server environment, manage virtual machines and containers, utilize Azure services for hybrid management, and much more. The course is designed to cover both foundational concepts and advanced techniques for managing and securing Windows Server infrastructures.

    While prior experience with earlier versions of Windows Server can be beneficial, it is not strictly necessary. The course begins with fundamental concepts and gradually advances to more complex topics, ensuring participants of all levels can follow along and build their expertise.

    Yes, the course includes practical, hands-on lab exercises that simulate real-world scenarios. These labs are designed to reinforce the material covered in the lectures and give participants a chance to apply what they’ve learned.

    Windows Server 2022 introduces several advancements and improvements over its predecessor, Windows Server 2019. These enhancements span security, performance, and hybrid cloud capabilities, reflecting Microsoft’s focus on integrating with Azure services and supporting modern infrastructure needs.

    No. This course teaches you to run Windows Server 2022 day to day and doesn’t include an exam. If you want the Microsoft certification, take our Windows Server Administrator Boot Camp (AZ-802), which prepares you for the AZ-802 exam.
