This workshop is intended for expert Windows 2000 systems engineers who plan, implement, and support Windows 2000-based networks running Microsoft Active Directory directory service, and who need to quickly leverage their skills in a Windows Server 2003 environment. The workshop assumes extensive, day-to-day practical, hands-on experience using Windows 2000 and a preference for learning by doing and discovering in a non-prescriptive lab environment. For a more traditional learning experience, see Course 2297: Planning, Implementing, Managing and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Environment for an MCSE on Windows 2000
