Course 6294 for deploying Windows 7

Hi, I’m Martin DelRe, portfolio manager for Windows 7 Training and Certification in Microsoft Learning. I you’ve ever deployed new versions of Windows clients, IE, and desktop/mobile applications, then I don’t need to tell you how important it is to consider the needs of your users and organization in advance, determine which deployment methods are best suited to your environment, and select which deployment tools you’ll use in the process. It’s also very important to anticipate potential problems or trade-offs you might encounter along the way and resolve those issues before end users get involved. And you’ll want to optimize security and performance while minimizing any potential support calls.

In a nutshell, that’s what course 6294 helps you do. This course does not shy away from the potential “little gotchas” either - like application compatibility, activation, user state and data migration, security, networking, and profile and policy decisions. You’ll also benefit from the experience of Microsoft Certified Trainers and other IT Pros who’ve been through this before. Moreover, course 6294 will help you standardize results and minimize your work by helping you design and implement reliable low touch or even zero touch deployments with a combination of Microsoft tools and processes. Finally, if you’re pursing the MCITP credential for Windows 7 Enterprise Desktop Administrator, course 6294 and its prerequisites are a great way to prepare for Exam 70-686.

When you have a few minutes, check out the syllabus for course 6294. If you decide to take the course, I believe you’ll find it’s time well spent and I’m sure your users and support team will feel that way too. Windows 7 is great stuff - go for it!
