MOAC IT Professional Fact Sheet FAQ S Q: How does the new networking curriculum change from Windows Server 2003? The MOAC IT Professional Series program covers courses on Microsoft software used by enterprise employees working to plan, design, implement, and administer the software infrastructure businesses use to run their network, websites, e-commerce sites, databases, email, intranet, and firewall. Job titles for these courses are: support technician, network administrator, network engineer, and database administrator. Software covered in the MOAC IT Pro program is: Windows client, Windows Server, Exchange Server, and SQL Server, in the newest and previous version. Programs in schools may be called networking, network administration, desktop support, and sometimes help desk. All MOAC IT Pro products map to the Microsoft Unified Skills Domain (USD) for each technology, the same market researched curriculum for planning the certification exams and the rest of Microsoft s training products. A: The curriculum changes entirely and dramatically. There is no one to one mapping with current exams. Microsoft has a new strategy behind certification positioning which divides the learning objectives between basic technology focused skills in the MCTS exams, and job role focused skills in the MCITP exams. Please see the attached diagrams for curriculum recommendations. Q: What will be in each MOAC course package? A: The textbook and lab manual each comes in the MOAC course. Q: Will Microsoft continue to provide trial software with Server 2008 texts? A: There will be Server 2008 Evaluation software available with the books. In addition, Wiley can provide MSDN AA free for the first three years with an adoption of the new MOAC program products. Q: Will the MOAC IT Pro program include Virtual labs for Server 2008 A: Yes.

These labs are the hands-on software experience that is critical for students to build the skills and knowledge they need for effective work with Windows Server 2008 on the job. Give them real experience with real software, freely exploring the full environment, instead of the prescribed task flow of simulations. MOAC Virtual labs simplify the implementation of your new network administration program by eliminating lab set up. All lab exercises are hosted on Microsoft servers. Only a browser and internet connection are required for their use. This will save your institution the expense of upgrading the hardware and the software in your lab.
