Yeah. A migration isn't just upgrading the OS. We're also moving the server infrastructure(gpo's, drives, network resources) to server 16.

man im just trying to get my foot in the door in IT and i don't have any technical professional experience. I'm pretty knowledgeable about computers. How would I go about landing a role in Desktop support or help desk?

Grab the A+ and put out your resume. After that go for the sec+ and then decide where you want to go. If you want to do server admin go for the mcsa if you want to do networking go for the ccna ect. Keep going for certs until you get a bite.

What do you think about the Google IT Support Professional Certificate?
Working through the google it certificate right now. Finally buckling down and Putting time in everyday..definitely can’t see it taking as long as they say.
I’ve been bullshytting I can’t lie I should’ve been bad my A+ and Network+ but I got sidetracked when I got this new job in 2016. So many gems in this thread I’ve been getting back motivated and reading this helps even more.

I know nothing about it. But the thread in TLR has good reviews and it seems to cover a lot of material different material so it's probably a good way to test out different paths.

I was previously the single build engineer (imaging replacement machines & new hire machines) for my site of about 5000+ end users. Im moving to advocate role ( similar to the genius bar at apple where users stop by your area with issues and you have 15minutes to solve it). I got started by interning for my church and working part time for NFL 2 years ago.
That Google cert has good information. The hands on labs makes it much more relevant to getting your first IT job. The only issue is the cert is new and hasn't caught on. So while I would say it's better than than the A+, the A+ will look better on your resume for now.
Edit: I would actually skip the A+ and just go for Network +

Watched the professor messer videos for the first time all the way through and I have been jotting down notes from my exam cram book and taking the pratice tests on crucial exams and I have been passing them right along with test questions provided by the exam cram cd and I've been passing those as well. I'm legit in my book 3 hours a day. I really want this alot.
Ive been studying for my A+ for the last 2 months at least 5 hours a day. I'm taking it on the 16th of June. I'm nervous even though I know all the material. I just hammer away on it every second of free time I get.
