Windows Server Administration is a comprehensive practical course designed to equip learners with the knowledge and hands-on skills required to install, configure, manage, secure, monitor, and troubleshoot Windows Server environments.
The course introduces learners to Windows Server architecture, server installation, configuration, networking, user and group management, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), Group Policy, DNS, DHCP, file and print services, storage management, virtualization, remote administration, backup and recovery, security, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
Learners will gain practical experience in managing users, computers, groups, organizational units, permissions, policies, network services, and server resources within a Windows-based enterprise environment. The course also introduces PowerShell administration and automation to help learners perform routine administrative tasks efficiently.
Special attention is given to Active Directory, domain controllers, authentication, authorization, Group Policy, DNS and DHCP because these technologies form the foundation of many Windows-based organisational networks.
Through practical demonstrations, labs, assignments, case studies, and a final administration project, learners will develop the ability to plan and manage a small-to-medium Windows Server environment.
By the end of the course, learners should be able to install and configure Windows Server, create and manage Active Directory environments, administer users and computers, configure network services, manage permissions, implement security policies, monitor server performance, perform backups, troubleshoot common problems, and automate administrative tasks using PowerShell.
