MCSE Training

[fvlmasl2]

Evening All...

Since class training is so high$$$$$ i have been considering the MS training kit. I do not want just test preps. I have basic experience with networking, i have built myself a Win2003 Server with DC and AD with 3 clients. What do you all think? Is there a better training kit out there?


Thanks

I got my MCSE through them, cost me about $1000 for a year of online courses that you can take whenever you want. You still have to pay for the tests obviously.

I'm currently evaluating the Online Anytime IT comprehensive library at work. Although I have already passed 6 of 7 tests for my MCSE, I'm going back over the old stuff and it's ok. I went through the AD administration courses and they seemed kind of short for someone who may have little experience. I think they also have online classes that you can view from home but they cost more. There's a demo to look at, and if you go into a New Horizon's they are normally pretty helpful.

What about self-study with books. Any recommendations for books that would be good for the 4 core exams.

It doesnt deal with any brand of computers in particular, it deals with Microsoft server products.
