Certificate of Achievement - Microsoft Windows Systems Administration
Catalog and Addendum 2009-2010
The Microsoft Windows systems administration program is designed to fully prepare students to install, configure and administer Microsoft products. The program focuses on Microsoft, but also includes support courses that are not vendor specific and better prepare the student to work in the field. Completion of the program helps to prepare students to take and pass the Microsoft series of certification exams. You will need to complete a separate testing process administered by Microsoft that generally requires payment of fees to receive the certification as a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE).
This curriculum provides preparation for a career in computer systems administration. These jobs go by a variety of titles such as: systems administrator, network administrator, network engineer, database administrator and LAN specialist. This program would be an excellent choice for a student interested in a career with any of those job titles. To earn a certificate of achievement, students must complete each course used to meet a certificate requirement with a "C" grade or better and maintain an overall GPA of 2.5 or better in the coursework required for the certificate.
