Though some time is given to architecture and theory, we've only included the most helpful information. We've left out the non-essentials so that you can get up-to-speed with Asterisk as quickly as possible. Best practices are described throughout, and many examples are supported with Asterisk documentation.

Asterisk Essentials is an online, self-paced, video course. 14 chapters include a total of approximately 60 videos, averaging between 5 and 6 minutes each. This Asterisk training course does not have a formal lab component but does have numerous detailed examples that students should be able to implement themselves if they have access to a Linux system where they can install Asterisk.
