Please advise on MCITP!!

Question
-
Hi!, I need your advise badly!!!
I wanted to take the MCITP exams and I recently bought the following kit listed below. The thing is that it says in the book that it assumes I have AD and knowledge of Windows Server of which I have none of.
What can you recommend I take to become MCITP certified, or should I even read books since its my first time. Essentially I would like to know what you recommend for a beginner with no experience as far as Windows server and all goes.
I currently only have basic computer skills like A+ and would like to upgrade myself with Microsoft exams to put myself out there in the job market.
Thanks a lot for your answers in advance!

Hi there, for getting more information about the certifications you can check microsoft.com/learning
The Certification MCITP: Enterprise Administrator requires you to take 5 Exams
You should start with basic MCTS exams for configuring Win7, or for configuring specific parts of the windows server (active directory, network, applications/rdp). Afterwards you should take the more complex ITPRO exam 70-647.

Active Directory is the base service for many other services from Microsoft. That is why it is covered in MCITP: Enterprise Administrator.
You can take the exams in any order, depends on you. It was just a suggestion how to proceed.
But yes, you need to know a lot about AD to become MCITP.
