Course Description

NEWSFLASH- Please read as of 6/24/2021You asked for it, and we listened. So now you got it!! We have just updated the course with nearly 3 1/2 hours of NEWvideos. Now you can update SCCMto version 1910 or the latest 2002. And much, much more to come!
If youve made it to this page, chances are youre currently at SCCM Noob status (or are at least unfamiliar with the latest version), and you need to upgrade your skills FAST. Youre either:
Already a Windows sysadmin who just had a newly installed SCCM server dropped into your lap, and now you have to figure out how to work it properlyAn IT professional whos recently been promoted into a role where Congrats! youre now in charge of getting SCCM deployed for your entire organization (even though you have zero experience with it)Working with a client and an SCCM install is part of your project scope, but youve never done it beforeExperienced in SCCM 2012, but your organization has decided to move to a newer version of SCCM, and you need to know whats changed and how the new features workOr just simply an IT enthusiast looking to add another technical proficiency to your resumeRegardless where youre starting from, the consensus is in:
The worst thing you could POSSIBLY do is jump into an SCCM production environment without understanding how to use it. Hang around sysadmin forums long enough, and youll hear the horror stories of re-imaging 1,000s of machines incorrectly and burning your businesss infrastructure to the ground.
Thankfully, that type of gloom and doom is incredibly rare. But the point remains: you need to find some effective SCCM training to get you up to speed before you jump in.
The problem is, most SCCM courses are books do more talking than showing, leaving you with a rough idea of what SCCM can do and how to use it... But mostly just half asleep at your desk, and still confused when you go to actually implement it. We did something different.
With System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) For Beginners weve built the entire course around establishing a working test lab on your laptop and walking you through a real, functioning ConfigMgr environment.
Our goal is to teach you the fundamentals of SCCM as quickly and painlessly as possible, so that you can walk away from this course with the ability to deploy and administrate SCCM as soon as youre done.
After taking this course youll be able to:
Install and configure SCCM from the ground up including downloading and installing the latest SCCM, SQL, and all of the necessary server roles and schemaUse the Configuration Manager Console, including managing users, creating boundary groups, and user discovery methods.
Create and push out applications to the Windows PCs on your network to the appropriate users (plus how to monitor whether its progress and any errors that pop up)Deploy an Operating System to a machine on your network, without worrying about making an OMG what did I do? type mistakeIntegrate Endpoint Protection with SCCM to prevent network security threats and keep your users safeUpdate Configuration Manager to the latest version.
And overall, administrate the latest version of SCCM like a proAll with easy-to-follow, high quality videos and downloadable reference PDFs.
No more scrolling through Microsoft forums trying to figure out which features apply to the latest version of SCCM, and which are outdated...
No more trying to decipher the advanced language youll find in SCCM communities online. That stuff may make sense to them, but boy is it rough for beginners...
And no need to attend expensive in-person training or trying to read through dense SCCM books that are filled with vast wall-of-text explanations and only a sparse screenshot here or there...
You can work at your own pace, watch us work through each configuration screen and pause where you need to, and youll have lifetime access to the material once you register.
But dont just take our word for it though. Heres what just a few of our IT students say about our courses:
