-       Students typically have more than one year of hands-on experience* with planning and maintaining SharePoint and two years’ experience with other core technologies on which SharePoint depends, including Windows Server 2012 R2 or later, Internet Information Services (IIS), Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or later, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), and networking infrastructure services.

Prerequisites:

Before attending this course, students must have knowledge of:

-       Software management in a Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2 enterprise server environment.

-       Deploying and managing applications natively, virtually, and in the cloud.
