Questions fréquentes
Is this course taught in English?
Yes. Citrix XenApp XenDesktop 7.15 PVS WEM is presented as a practical English-language course, and the public lesson titles are in English. Its explanations center on technical concepts, screen-based administration and the actions demonstrated in the lab. This is particularly helpful if you want to learn the English terminology used in Citrix consoles and documentation.
How does ITFIT video training work?
The course is divided into sections containing individual video lessons. You can follow the sequence from preparation to user profiles, or return to a relevant administration topic when reviewing a configuration. Citrix XenApp XenDesktop 7.15 PVS WEM is designed around a practical flow rather than a collection of unrelated product descriptions.
What practical labs and demonstrations are included?
The published Citrix XenApp XenDesktop 7.15 PVS WEM program explicitly includes three lab preparation lessons, site installation, VDA installation, creating catalogs and Delivery Groups, MCS master-image updates, StoreFront configuration and a heavy-profile test. It also includes lessons on correcting a site-creation issue and resolving an MCS master-update issue. These are identifiable practical activities within the course syllabus.
Does the course cover both PVS and WEM?
Both Citrix Provisioning Services (PVS) and Workspace Environment Management (WEM) are named in the course description. PVS also appears explicitly in lesson 9.1, which introduces catalogs, Delivery Groups, MCS and PVS. The currently published list of 64 lesson titles does not identify a separate WEM lesson or a dedicated hands-on PVS installation section. The detailed practical modules shown in that list are focused primarily on core XenApp and XenDesktop administration and MCS.
Can I learn at my own pace?
Yes. You can follow the course online at your own pace, work through its 14 sections in order and revisit earlier demonstrations to reinforce your understanding of a configuration before applying it in your own lab.
Do I receive an ITFIT certificate?
Yes. Completion of Citrix XenApp XenDesktop 7.15 PVS WEM provides an ITFIT course completion certificate. It confirms completion of the ITFIT training path. This is an ITFIT-issued attestation, not an official Citrix or Microsoft certification, and it is not a government-recognized state diploma.
Is this course intended for production environments running newer Citrix releases?
The curriculum is based on XenApp and XenDesktop 7.15. Its architectural concepts can help you understand Citrix administration, but software compatibility, security guidance and exact configuration steps should be checked against the documentation for the release you actually use. Do not assume that every legacy console screen or installation step is unchanged in newer products.
