2. Manage AD Objects and Group Policy — Create and administer users, groups, computers, and OUs while designing and enforcing GPOs across the organization
3. Implement Certificate and Federation Services — Deploy AD CS for PKI infrastructure and AD FS for federated identity and single sign-on scenarios
4. Configure Azure AD Synchronization — Implement Azure AD Connect to synchronize on-premises identities with Microsoft Entra ID for hybrid identity management

Who Should Attend

Windows Server administrators, identity engineers, infrastructure architects, and IT professionals responsible for managing enterprise identity services. Ideal for those seeking advanced expertise in AD DS and hybrid identity with Microsoft Entra ID.

Career Benefits

Identity management is a critical pillar of enterprise IT. Professionals who can design and manage hybrid identity solutions spanning on-premises AD and cloud-based Entra ID are highly valued. This expertise leads to senior roles in infrastructure engineering, identity architecture, and cloud platform management.
