Course 801 - The Gold Build

Whilst not directly related to a specific Lanboss product, this course was created to offer a solid grounding in the principles and methods of building great workstation images, creating the elusive 'Gold Build'. The fact remains that over half of a typical IT budget goes on supporting workstation builds. Getting these under control and developing a comprehensive set of standards is of paramount importance. 'The Gold Build' develops workstation image building as a series of best practices that cover virtually all user and corporate requirements.
