This page is designed to give you independent advice on choosing your
training course, I am not trying to sell you a seat on a particular course.
Think of it as an insider view from a trainer.
My first message for Windows 2000 is - 'this is a huge product'. One
training course is unlikely to make anyone an expert. The modern training
trend is to select just the modules you need, so if you are a delegate or
selling courses do take the time to check all the courses available.
As a trainer I welcome special requests, the easiest and most satisfying
people to train are those who know just what they want.
There are four categories of Windows 2000 Courses
- Upgrade courses from NT 4.0 to Windows 2000 (Intermediate)
- Networking essentials and Windows 2000 (Foundation)
- Features of Windows 2000 Server and Professional (Intermediate)
- Specialist courses, for example: Active Directory, Migration (Advanced)
Why choose Microsoft Official Courses (MOC)?
As an independent trainer, I deliver not only Microsoft courses but also
'grey' courseware. The Microsoft material is so much more comprehensive
and above all, the practical exercises are very well designed. Moreover,
Microsoft insist on standards for kit, classrooms and instructors.
Windows Server 2000 Courses
Whilst you can get the outlines elsewhere, here is a brief summary of the
Windows 2000 courses.
2152 - Great foundation course. If you are new to Windows 2000, start
here.
2153 - Excellent Advanced course specializing in networking. In depth
challenging sections on RAS, DNS, DHCP and Certificate server.
2154 - Comprehensive Active Directory Course - Recommended. Covers
logical and physical aspects, good section on Group Policy.

1560 - O.K especially if you have a good NT background
1561 - Avoid too much TCP/IP that you will never need
