This section is designed for the people responsible for implementing Device42 and assumes these people have:
- An understanding of Network Engineering as well as their IT environment.
- Completed the following Device42 training modules available at the [Device42 Academy](https://academy.device42.com/):
- Device42 Certified Technical Administrator (DCT-A) Course
- Implementation Fundamentals: Deployment
- Implementation Fundamentals: Discovery
This guide is for the people responsible for deploying Device42 in your organization. It walks you through the full implementation process, from understanding how Device42 fits into your environment, through discovery and data validation, to getting data on screen and working with it. These steps map to the four phases of a Device42 implementation (Deploy, Discover, Data Validation, and Display), which are covered in detail in the pages that follow.

## Prerequisites

Before diving in, it's recommended that you have an understanding of network engineering and your IT environment, and have completed the following training modules available at the [Device42 Academy](https://academy.device42.com/):
- Device42 Certified Technical Administrator (DCT-A) Course
- Implementation Fundamentals: Deployment

This page is for implementers setting up Device42 for the first time. It gives you a high-level overview of the implementation process before you work through each phase in the pages that follow.

We view a Device42 implementation as occurring in four phases, what we refer to as "The 4 Ds of Device42". This structured approach is based upon best practices from thousands of implementations. These four phases are:
- Deploy
- Discover
