Question 1

What will you learn in this Windows Server 2012 training?

Accepted Answer

You'll learn how to maintain a Windows Server 2012 infrastructure in this training. This course was designed to teach server administrators how to use the tools and resources that Windows Server 2012 makes available for configuring user and group management, maintaining network access and ensuring data security. This course doesn't cover Windows Server 2012 installation or advanced services, but the bulk of Server 2012 administration tasks are covered.

Question 2

Why would you take this Windows Server 2012 training?

Accepted Answer

You should take this course if you need to quickly learn all you can about administering Windows Server 2012.

You should take this course if your daily job tasks include deploying and managing server images, configuring file and print services, or configuring network services and access.

Question 3

Is this Windows Server 2012 course associated with a certification?

Accepted Answer

No, this Windows Server 2012 course is no longer associated with a valid certification. It used to be associated with the MCSA: Windows Server 2012 but it's retired. Microsoft retired both the cert and all three of its exams (70-410, 70-411, and 70-412) in January of 2021. The certification may be retired, but plenty of enterprise networks still depend on Windows Server 2012, and this course is still helpful for administrators.

Question 4

What certification should you be thinking about after this course?

Accepted Answer

This course used to help prepare you for the MCSA: Windows Server 2012, but it's retired. Don't wait for new certifications related to Windows Server 2012, either. After taking this Windows Server 2012 administration course, you'll be a step closer to being ready for the Microsoft Certified: Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate or Microsoft Certified: Azure Virtual Desktop Specialty, but you'll still need to do a lot of prep work.

Question 5

Who should take this Windows Server 2012 Administration course?

Accepted Answer

Systems and server administrators who support Windows Server 2012 should seriously consider taking this course.
