Introduction

This 10-days instructor-led training course describes mobile device management (MDM) technologies and the integration of various online cloud services with Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. This course focuses on both hybrid MDM using Microsoft Intune, and the on-premises MDM scenario.

This course also covers integration with online services such as Microsoft Store for Business, Microsoft Office 365, and Microsoft Azure.

Course Objectives

After completing this course, students will be able to:

• Describe the challenges in managing a mobile and Internet-based workforce and how Configuration Manager integrated with MDM and cloud services solutions can address these challenges.
• Describe and configure methods used to manage client devices that are located outside the corporate network and connected to the Internet.
• Deploy and manage Microsoft Store for Business apps by using Configuration Manager.
• Deploy and manage Office 365 apps by using Configuration Manager.
