CBT Nuggets – James Conrad – Microsoft MCSA Windows 8 70-688 [27 WebRip (MP4)]

Recommended skills:
Basic PC hardware skills
Basic Windows knowledge
If necessary, consider all or parts of the A+ 2012 series and the 70-687 series as a foundation
Windows Server 2012 knowledge would also be helpful. Consider the 70-410 series to learn a server foundation.

Recommended equipment:
Viewers who also want to practice Windows 8 administration on their own can do follow most of the demos on a single Windows 8 computer. However, it is strongly recommended that you use virtualization software such as virtual box, VMWare, or Hyper-V to install and test multiple other machines. In particular, much of this course uses multiple machines at once and you will need at least a domain controller and one other server besides Windows 8.
