Posted: Sun Aug 06, 2006 9:44 am Post subject: MCP with 70-528? |
|
|
I'm planning to take my first Microsoft exam (70-528). If I take this
exam, do I get a MCP Welcome Kit and benefits? Or do I have to take the
2 exams for the MCTS to become a MCP (Microsoft Certified
Professional)?
Some complain that they passed this exam and didn't get the MCP
Welcome Kit.
It used to be in the past that if you passed 1 exam, example 70-315,
you become a MCP.
Also, if you review the current MCP requirements list in their website,
it doesn't mention 70-528, nor 70-536, nor MCTS.
Last but not least, should I take 70-528 first or 70-536 for obtaining
the MCTS?
Sorry, but I'm confused. |

Hi Thor,
Now you have me confused! ;-)
You're saying that passing any one exam of the new series will *not*
automatically mean an MCP certification? And therefore, will not entail
a welcome kit ?
If that is so, then it is certainly news to me. |

Thanks for your reply, but let me say that this doesn't make sense to
me.
So if I take the 70-315 (Visual Studio 2003 + C#) I get automatically
the MCP and welcome package, but if I take the 70-528 (with Visual
Studio 2005) I don't.
I don't understand Microsoft Certification philosophy here... :-( |

I guess the PRO-series means MCP.
I believe MCTS means MCP.
Part of MCTS (one of the dev without 70-536) does not mean MCP.
I think MS are more confused than confusing.
