Question as a new SCCM Admin
I am moving into a role as part of a SCCM Admin at my company. Previous to that; I have worked as part of a team in Sys Admin support for Windows servers; physical and virtual (VMWare and Citrix). I am writing to ask those of you who work with this product for any advice or guidance on what I should learn or how I should approach learning this "fairly new to me" aspect of Microsoft's product suite?
Many thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

One of the first things that i would do is create a Hydration Kit and deploy an SCCM lab if you have the capability:
