Description

PowerShell is the must-have tool for system administrators. Jump-start your career, and your IT environment, by getting up and running with the latest version, PowerShell 7.

PowerShell is a cross-platform task automation and configuration management framework, consisting of a command-line shell and scripting language. Unlike most shells, which accept and return text, PowerShell is built on top of the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR), and accepts and returns .NET objects. This fundamental change brings entirely new tools and methods for automation.

Unlike traditional command-line interfaces, PowerShell cmdlets are designed to deal with objects. An object is structured information that is more than just the string of characters appearing on the screen. Command output always carries extra information that you can use if you need it.

If you've used text-processing tools to process data in the past, you'll find that they behave differently when used in PowerShell. In most cases, you don't need text-processing tools to extract specific information. You directly access portions of the data using standard PowerShell object syntax.

PowerShell is rapidly becoming the solution that Operators turn to with its powerful combination of a scripting language, command line speed, and GUI tools (Graphical User Interface).

This course is an introduction to PowerShell where you'll have an opportunity to learn how to replace manual, repetitive, and time-consuming operations with an automated solution.

With a solid foundation in PowerShell, you’ll learn the fundamental knowledge of PowerShell and how to utilize the program efficiently, through these courses, you’ll explore the critical skill of how to use the PowerShell help system and build the command syntax. Next, you'll discover how to use commands and be introduced to aliases, cmdlets, providers, and psdrives. Finally, you'll learn how to configure, navigate, and get the most out of the different PowerShell consoles.

By the end of these courses, you’ll have elevated your PowerShell skills to the next level and taken the next step towards PowerShell mastery.

The ideal students for this course is the system and network administrators that want greater efficiency in their daily administrative work. Whether you have zero scripting experience or are looking for highest-level, advanced training. PowerShell allows you to go straight to the command line and get jobs done with greater speed, consistency and even repetition.
