In this intermediate Microsoft SCCM training, James Conrad prepares learners to take the 70-243 exam, which is one of two exams required to earn the MCTS: SCCM 2012 certification.

After watching this course and answering the quiz questions, you'll know how to manage the Windows infrastructure using the System Center Configuration Manager 2012 R2, package and deploy software and virtual applications, and deploy Configuration Manager clients.

Systems administrators who complete this Microsoft course will be better prepared to step into systems engineer roles when the time comes and free up time to work on the important stuff.

For anyone who leads a technology team, this SCCM training can be used for 70-243 exam prep, on-boarding new systems administrators, or as part of a team training plan.
