~ Microsoft Networking MCSE Library ~
Table of Contents:
The following library of documents was created during my year at Westervelt College, between
September 2001 and August 2002.
This fast-track 12-month course covered Microsoft MCSE 2000 Networking
material and also had lots of
hands-on classroom exercises, to enhance the experience.
I created the following detailed notes and diagrams, book by book, chapter by chapter from handwritten
and classroom notes. Also included are summary notes that assisted me
before Final Exams along with
some practice exam questions and
links.
This library is helpful if you are training for any Certifications, so please browse through it, and enjoy!
I found it a wonderful reference tool during my year at school, and it continues to assist me on a daily
basis in my current position as a Customer Support Consultant for ITS.
