This course is to provide individuals who are new to Microsoft Windows client operating system with the knowledge necessary to understand and identify the tasks involved in supporting Windows server products. This is an introductory course designed to provide an overview of networking concepts and how they are implemented in a Windows-based environment.

Install and configure Windows Server with Active Directory, Network Services, Local Storage, File and Print Services, Group Policy, and virtualization.

Administer Windows Server, Active Directory, DNS, Remote Access, Network Policy Server, File System Security, and Update Management.

This course addresses the implementation of advanced Windows Server services. Students will install, configure, and administer advanced Windows Server services including network services, file services, dynamic access control, network load balancing, failover clustering, disaster recovery, Active Directory Certificate Services, and Active Directory Federation Services.

Training in management and administration of networks, to address the issues of security, procedures and documentation, user support, printing, and file server organization. Includes administrative tools necessary to setup, manage, and use basic network services including security and E-mail.

Provides students with the knowledge and skills to begin supporting network security within an organization.

This is the first of a three-course sequence designed to prepare students for the Cisco CCNA certification. This course introduces the architectures, models, protocols, and networking elements that connect users, devices, applications and data through the internet and across modern computer networks - including IP addressing and Ethernet fundamentals. By the end of the course, students can build simple local area networks (LANs) that integrate IP addressing schemes, foundational network security, and perform basic configurations for routers and switches.

This is the second of a three-course sequence designed to prepare students for the Cisco CCNA certification. This course focuses on switching technologies and router operations that support small-to-medium business networks and includes wireless local area networks (WLANs) and security concepts. Students learn key switching and routing concepts. They perform basic network configuration and troubleshooting, identify and mitigate LAN security threats, and configure and secure a basic WLAN.

This is the third of a three-course sequence designed to prepare students for the Cisco CCNA certification. This course describes the architectures and considerations related to designing, securing, operating, and troubleshooting enterprise networks. This course covers wide area network (WAN) technologies and quality of service (QoS) mechanisms used for secure remote access. It also introduces software-defined networking, virtualization, and automation concepts that support the digitalization of networks. Students gain skills to configure and troubleshoot enterprise networks and learn to identify and protect against cybersecurity threats. They are introduced to network management tools and learn key concepts of software-defined networking, including controller-based architectures and how application programming interfaces (APIs) enable network automation.

This course introduces the core security concepts and emphasizes the practical application of skills needed to monitor, detect, analyze and respond to cybercrime, cyberespionage, insider threats, advanced persistent threats, regulatory requirements, and other cybersecurity issues facing organizations.
