WINDOWS POWERSHELL 101 Class-On-Disc

ScriptingAnswers.com University presents Windows PowerShell™ 101, the perfect way to begin your Windows PowerShell education at your own pace and on your own schedule! Join scripting guru, author, and instructor Don Jones on an in-depth look at Windows PowerShell, including cmdlets, function, script development, security features, the pipeline, and much more. You’ll see behind-the-scenes and under-the-hood while exploring underlying technology such as Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), the Microsoft .NET Framework, and more. Don’s conversational style, combined with helpful conceptual animations, make even complex topics easier to master. Self-assessment quizzes and hands-on exercises—complete with guided sample solutions—round out more than 20 hours of training activities, in ScriptingAnswers.com University’s largest titles to date. Windows PowerShell 101 is also the perfect companion to Windows PowerShell: TFM™ from SAPIEN Press. The training materials on the disc supplement and enhance the book’s coverage of core concepts, while leveraging examples from the book to provide a more consistent training experience. The book and self-paced class follow the same outline, and the class leverages the book as a reference guide, providing a complete, multi-media training and reference solution that’s unmatched by any single-component Windows PowerShell educational offering.

Also included on the disc are two self-paced "mini classes" on Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) and Active Directory Services Interface (ADSI). These short classes will help you pick up the essentials of these "foundation" technologies, enabling you to put them to use in the main Windows PowerShell course.
