From time to time I receive emails from people who want to get started with Exchange Server. Reading through this blog from the first to the last article would be a start, but it might take a little too long. However, there are a few online trainings as videos that can serve as a basis. Here is a small selection:
The offer has been around for some time, but perhaps it is still of interest to one or the other: Together with its partner edX, Microsoft is offering online training for Exchange Server 2016. There are 4 training courses in total:
- CLD208.1x: Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 Infrastructure-Learn how to plan, configure and manage Active Directory infrastructure requirements for Microsoft Exchange Server 2016.

The first training course is free, the others cost USD 49 per course. All courses are only available in English.
However, as the first course "Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 Infrastructure" is offered free of charge, you only have to invest a little time and can then decide whether the courses are worth around 44 EUR each.
Alternatively, you can also take a look at Video2Brain, where there are also a few courses for getting started with Exchange Server:
The subscription here costs EUR 19.95 per month or EUR 198.00 per year. The courses are available in German.
The free Microsoft offer MVA (Microsoft Virtual Academy) unfortunately does not have much to offer in the area of Exchange Server:
Pluralsight also offers courses in English:
The Pluralsight offer could be interesting for people with an MSDN subscription, as the training courses can be viewed here free of charge:
