Apple macOS and iOS System Administration (2026)

Descripción

Now featuring iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS 26 Tahoe! Apple macOS and iOS System Administration (2026) will teach you how to use Apple’s first party software in conjunction with the popular Mosyle MDM (Mobile Device Management) platform to manage iOS and macOS devices easily and efficiently. If you have familiarity with Apple's operating systems from an end-user perspective but need to manage an organization of macOS or iOS endpoints, this course is for you. This course assumes no experience with system administration on Apple platforms so no prior experience is required. If you are new to system administration or just new to administrating Apple operating systems, this course will introduce you to the basic concepts of managing a handful of devices and scales to how to provide effective support to thousands of devices. The course begins by introducing the basics of Apple hardware and local system management. Tools like Apple Remote Desktop, Screen Time and Apple Configurator are used to demonstrate how to manage a small number of devices. As the course continues, you will be building a cloud-based Mobile Device Management environment using the Mosyle MDM platform. You will learn to configure over-the-air activation and device management for iPhone and iPad endpoints including device restrictions, Managed Apple Accounts, managed iOS Apps, and more. You will move on to macOS administration and learn to automate software installations, updates, and customize the user experience using configuration profiles and integrate with Identity Providers like Microsoft Entra ID for single sign-on. Taking a project-based approach, students will 'code along' to complete seven real-word projects utilizing a variety of the functions of the Mosyle MDM solution. From an employee "bring your own device" iPhone management to a zero-touch self-service deployment of a new MacBook to a remote employee, these projects cover many of the most in-demand skills used by Apple system administrators. Once you have completed this course, you will be fully capable of using macOS, Apple Device Enrollment, and Mosyle MDM to administer hundreds or thousands of endpoints across businesses big and small. *Photo by Dmitry Chernyshov on Unsplash
