Administration with PowerShell - Live Virtual Class Trainings
I would like to present the most universal and versatile training course. No matter what kind of Microsoft product you have been using or have implemented, there is always one thing that binds them all together and that is PowerShell. I believe this course should be considered mandatory for all IT staff that deals with Microsoft technology.
When you as an IT professional attend Microsoft courses you quickly realize that simple configuration can be done using graphical user interface, however when you need to configure much more sophisticated features, PowerShell becomes a necessity. This course teaches you how to use the tool in order to enhance your daily activities. You can also create your own tools to automate your work and mainly to be independent of other vendors.
Here are my course proposals. I am sure you will find them very interesting.

Technical requirements
The whole course is delivered as a live virtual class training.
All
delegates will receive an invitation to the conference and information
on how to connect to specially prepared virtual machines using remote
desktops.
Delegates can connect from anywhere as long as they have a reliable connection to the Internet.
My
recommendation is that delegates should have 2 monitors or one monitor
with at least Full HD resolution because they will have to watch the trainer’s
demonstration and be able to work with virtual desktop at the same time.
There is no special requirement as far as delegates’ computer
configuration is concerned because remote desktop does not require a lot
of resources.
Windows 10 capable desktop computer or notebook is highly recommended.
As
a conferencing system, Webex or ClickMeeting would be preferred,
depending which one works better, taking into account the location of
delegates.
It is recommended that delegates use headsets to connect to audio conferencing. Video connection is not required.
These
courses will be delivered in English. Delegates will receive all
PowerPoint slides and all the other files and scripts, used or created
by the trainer during the training.
