SELF-PACED TRAINING FOR SUCCESS ON THE JOB AND ON THE MCP EXAMS.

To succeed at both, this kit contains the core knowledge needed by developers and systems administrators. Working at your ideal pace, use step-by-step lessons and hands-on lab exercises to learn to support and administer Microsoft Windows NT. And each kit contains the information and preparation you'll need for success on the four Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) core exams in the Microsoft Certified System Engineer (MCSE) track*. This is the only self-paced training kit made by Microsoft--which makes it the ultimate way to prepare for the job and for the MCP exams.

Microsoft Windows NT Workstation, rather than the Microsoft Windows® 95 option, is covered by this training package.
