Windows Server vs Active Directory training

The difference between Windows Server training and Active Directory training: what the server covers, what the domain covers and when to choose each course.

Back to Windows Server training overview

Windows Server training

Windows Server training focuses on server environment administration, services, roles, configuration and operational tasks.

Active Directory training

Active Directory training focuses on the domain, users, groups, permissions, policies and access security.

How to decide

If you need to understand the server as a whole, start with Windows Server. If you already work with domains and accounts, focus on Active Directory and Group Policy.
