What we test

If you already hold the Intermediate certificate and other people ask you what to do.

Syllabus

  • Who should be able to open a file, and how that is actually set
  • A backup you could restore, not a backup you only hope exists
  • A small automation of a task you currently repeat by hand
  • Networks in plain language: what is local, what has left the building
  • Choosing a tool, including the choice to stay with paper
  • Writing a short note a non-technical manager can act on
