Microsoft Vista Configuration Training - Overview

Windows Vista is dubbed as Microsoft's most compelling operating system release in over a decade. Windows Vista offers substantial new capabilities in security, performance, reliability, and manageability. It is also the first operating system released with the .NET Framework 3.0 in mind, and the first client operating system to include the .NET Framework 3.0 as a part of its own installation.

Our 3 day accelerated Microsoft Windows Vista Configuration Firebrand Training provides information technology professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to install, configure, support, and troubleshoot Microsoft Windows Vista. This is an accelerated, residential, fully-immersed course, designed for IT professionals that require effective, real-world skill-building and timely certification. You will live, learn, and test on-site.

Course Objectives. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Install and/or upgrade older Microsoft operating systems to Windows Vista
  • Configure applications and systems used within Windows Vista
  • Understand network connectivity
  • Understand mobile computing
  • Configure security settings
  • Troubleshoot post installation system settings

Our Window Vista Configuration Program:

  • Allows you to achieve your certifications in a fraction of the time of 'traditional training' while delivering industry-leading exam passing percentages
  • Helps students grasp complex technical concepts more easily by identifying and catering to individual student learning styles through a mixed visual, auditory and kinaesthetic-tactual delivery system
  • Enhances retention by employing accelerated learning techniques focused on committing information to long-term memory

Microsoft Vista Configuration Training - Benefits

For IT managers, certification is particularly important because it allows them to more easily identify the skills that an individual possesses. When a company has employees that possess certain skills, it can garner a competitive advantage when seeking to attract customers. Certification can also contribute to increased productivity, because studies have shown that certified individuals are generally quicker to implement and design new technologies. And of course by knowing that their employees are certified, IT managers can feel more confident about their ability to implement and support a network infrastructure.

Individuals

  • Overwhelmingly, individuals with Microsoft certifications have an advanced level of knowledge, expertise and skill, and command more professional credibility

Human Resources

  • Employer-funded training and certification programs are a key to retaining skilled IT staff. Career development and advancement opportunities are shown to significantly reduce rates of employee turnover
  • Certification Training Programs provide benchmarks for hiring and promotion decisions by accurately assessing technical skills
  • For-certification training programs maximize educational investments through immediate validation of skills

Microsoft certification affords special membership benefits

  • Technical information, product information and exclusive discounts on products and services through a secured section of the Microsoft website
  • Microsoft logos and certificate for your personal promotion to clients or potential employers
  • Invitations to Microsoft conferences and other educational opportunities
  • Access to the secure Microsoft Certified Professional Magazine Online website

Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.

Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.

Firebrand Training provides instruction to meet every learning need, including

  • Intensive group instruction
  • One-on-one instruction attention
  • Hands-on labs
  • Lab partner and group exercises
  • Question and answer drills
  • Independent study

This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.

Jaimin Rao, Made redundant last week :(.

Simon Jenkinson, DeveloperX Ltd.

"What sets Firebrand apart is the caliber of the instructors, full stop!"
Stephen Joy, Peavey Electronics LTD.

"Good focused training."
Jason Bond, Land Securities.

"An intensive course but producing good results! Whilst the orientation is mis-leading and actually leads you straight into your first nights learning experience, you quickly adjust to its intensive nature. The accomodation is simple, but enough to get a good nights rest and to study in private. 3 meals a day are provided and the catering staff try to accomodate as much as possible. But there is a huge range of snacks, soft drinks, tea & coffee to keep you going in-between. Overall a great way to remove yourself from your daily distractions and get on with the task of getting certified as quickly as possible. Definitely recommended, however a prior knowledge of working with Dynamics (or any other) CRM and a grounding on MS Windows/Servers will definitely help give you a jump start on certain elements of this course."
Phil Midgley, Collins Stewart Wealth Management.

"I would highly recommend the Firebrand Training courses to anybody including non-industry people. The courses are intense, but the delivery of the content is first class."
Mark Gambrell, MTA Solicitors.

Paul Dunlop, Perfect Image Limited.

"Very quick paced course, hard work but well run and very well delivered."
Chris Acton, Sourcewrite Limited.

"The course was, as always, highly useful and effective. Pacing was fast and occasionally the going was difficult, but never overwhelming and the environment was perfect for focus on studying.
