About this Course
This course is not designed as a technical deep dive and will be better suited to candidates working in small to medium organisations who are preparing to implement the technology and pass the associated exam.
The course instructor where possible will highlight these changes and guide students while working through their associated hands on labs.
Students will understand that provisioninghands-oned to take place at the beginning of each new module and that this provisioning is achieved at Microsoft Datacentres and not on premise.
The supplied credit will be sufficient to demonstrate and implement many of the technologies discussed throughout the delivery but will not allow for some of the more expensive components such as ADFS, HDInsight and BizTalk. The instructor where possible will supply or direct students to resources where they can further build their knowledge on these concepts.
Finally the course is designed as a technical introduction to many concepts… Business logic, budgeting and rationalisation is discussed broadly and in generalised terms.
