In an increasingly digitalised world, practical IT knowledge is becoming more and more important and it is almost assumed that you know the basic interrelationships and concepts of IT, have a good idea of how modern IT infrastructures are set up and can confidently deal with buzzwords such as cloud computing, big data or AI. However, many face the challenge of closing fundamental knowledge gaps in order to correctly categorise technical terms and new technologies.

In two days, our basic training provides you with the necessary IT knowledge in a compact, practical and entertaining way to deal with modern technology confidently and confidently in everyday working life. All content and thematic contexts are conveyed in simple terms and very clearly. This reduces fear of contact and promotes a lasting understanding of technical issues. You will not only learn the basics, but also how to deal confidently with IT terminology and new technologies and how to improve your communication with IT colleagues.

In addition to structured knowledge transfer, the core of the training concept is that you can ask questions at any time and address anything you have always wanted to know about information technology. The content is always flexible and can be customised to your individual interests.

Content and focus of the training:

  • Fundamentals of modern IT technology: analogue vs. digital technologies, bits and bytes, coding, resolution, compression.
  • Structure and functionality of computers: hardware components (mainboards, processors, memory technologies), functional principles, AI-supported interaction.
  • Structure of an IT infrastructure: server architectures, central services (database, file, web servers), clients (rich, thin, IoT devices), networks (routers, switches, VPN), storage solutions (RAID, NAS, SAN), software types and architectures.
  • Modern IT system landscapes: virtualisation (VMs, hypervisors, containers), cloud computing (SaaS, IaaS, XaaS), microservices, DevOps, CI/CD.
  • Security and data protection: Legal foundations and protection goals of IT security, encryption, authentication, typical attack scenarios, protective measures.
  • Trends and innovations in IT: IoT, Industry 4.0, big data, artificial intelligence, machine learning, data warehouses vs. data lakes.

The training covers a wide range of IT topics and offers both beginners and advanced participants valuable insights and practical knowledge. It is aimed at employees and managers at all levels and from all departments who want to learn the basics or expand their existing IT knowledge in order to become more confident and confident in dealing with modern technology.

If your training course takes place in the virtual classroom, you will receive digital training documents via the Mimeo platform (included in the course price), which can be used online and offline in the Mimeo environment (search/notes, etc.). If you would like printed training documents in addition to the digital documents, you can order these for € 74,-- net via the registration form.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to send printed training materials to Switzerland and other non-EU countries for customs reasons, so we recommend that you bring an internet-enabled device (e.g. laptop or tablet) with you for face-to-face training in Switzerland.

All classroom training courses are generally equipped with printed training materials (paper - included in the course price). If you would like additional digital training material via Mimeo, you can order this for € 24 net via the registration form.

For face-to-face courses, refreshments during breaks (drinks, pastries and lunch) are included in the course price.
