Course Description

                            Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) is a recommended entry point into IT certification. Pass just one exam and you’ll earn a certification! 

NOTE: This is a legacy course covering Windows 7. The latest version of the exam covers Windows 10, I have this course available, however, it is still a good idea to learn about Windows 7.

                              The main benefit of earning a Microsoft Certification is that it shows potential employers/hiring managers that you have the necessary requirements and skills to be the perfect candidate for the job. 

                              In this course you will learn all you need to know to pass the exam and apply your skills in real world scenarios. 

  • Overview of Windows Operating System

  • Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1

  • Real-world examples

  • Labs with step-by-step      instructions

  • Detailed lectures on installation, folders and shares

  • Troubleshooting tools and tips

  • Quizzes to help you pass the      exam

                              The course is perfect for anyone who seeks to learn the fundamentals of Windows Operating System concepts. 

  Contents and Overview 

                          In over 4 hours of content including more than 30 lectures this course covers the basics of Windows Operating System Fundamentals. Each chapter closes with a quiz to make sure you can practice exam questions and test your knowledge before moving to the next section. 

                          We start from scratch discussing managing applications, files and folders, how to install and upgrade Client Systems and manage devices. This course discusses security, malware protection, remote access and visualization.

I think so. Occasionally he would go on tangents over my head, but overall found the course helpful. Had small issues with accent and close caption not interpreting correctly. There were mention of a couple downloads available that i could not find, specifically the one from itpracticeexam.net that listed basic IT Terms

By Allen Lagoy on 3/7/2019

To this date, I've only been in IT Infrastructure for almost 3 years. I came into an enterprise environment with zero experience. I did learn a lot on the job and continue to do so. Many of the topics here were pretty basic and is what I should've started learning when I started working in IT. There are a lot of items covered with Windows 7 and 8 and added classes with Windows 10 (which I had to learn when I started). Overall, I think this is a good class for those looking for fundamentals to learn.

By Ramses Abreu on 7/30/2018

This course does not support it's name. Microsoft requirements for the MTA Windows OS Fundamentals 98-349 were presented very late in the course and basically, all lectures are oriented to very new starters in Windows, not to someone who is trying to get the certification. I only found real content in lectures 45 and 51, the rest is extremely basic. I would not recommend this course to anyone trying to pass the exam.

By Kody Hilborn on 11/7/2017

25% complete: 3 stars. So far, I haven't learned much more than is obtainable from a few Microsoft support pages. I'm unsure of why the course is segmented into so many tiny videos, two or three of which most people can skip before getting to any info that is substantial. 50% complete: Upgraded to 4 stars. Anyone that's been using PCs for any length of time should already know about 75% of the material covered. There are some gems of new knowledge here and there. If you're totally new to using PCs and are looking for an excellent starting point, this is it. 100% complete: Leaving it at 4 stars. It's a good primer for people who have little to no PC experience, but if you've been using PCs for 5+ years in a approaching-power-user capacity, you'll be bored with a lot of the material.

By Oscar Adán on 8/17/2015

It's a great course if you already have a basic/medium experience with Windows OS. A bit advanced if you are a complete Newbie on Windows. It's easy to follow. It'll be a great feature (I think it's a UDEMY thing) to let speed up video playback)

By Luis Ortega on 7/27/2015

Video course is a summary of the 98-349 certification. If you have prior experience on the subject cover, this course serves as a review of key points. If you have no experience, then you will need more than this course. Overall, it was good.

By Kenneth Boxall on 7/21/2015

I found this course easy to follow there were problems trying to load up the virtual box because I didn't have windows boot discs but that was a problem on my end not the in-structures.

By Robert Holt on 7/14/2015

I've been out of IT for a few years, took this course as a referesher. Was well paced, covered a good range of topics, and seems to be good preparation for taking the 98-349 MTA test. Also enjoyed the extra subject matter covered, such as remote access solutions and other utilities. Nicely done.

By Shawn OHara on 3/1/2015
