Certification Plans

posted on September 5, 2008

I wrote the exam I was dreading the most, 70-297. It is an exam which has multiple case studies and you only have a short amount of time to read, and answer each one. I got pressed for time on the first case study, but after that, I learned to skim over some of the reading material and was quicker at getting through the case studies. Thankfully I passed and I am happy to have it out of the way. With that one complete, the finishes the MCSE on Windows Server 2003. I started that journey back in June of 2006, which I passed 70-290 using both a 50% off coupon and the second shot. That was a sweet deal, its too bad they don’t do that anymore. You can get the second shot again but not the deep discount.

Now that I have finished up my MSCE on Windows Server 2003, I have been thinking about which exams to write next. I know both Brad and Garth are wondering, so here goes. I am writing 70-646 (MCITP: Server Admin) next to achieve some more teachable courses for Windows Server 2008. After that exam, the short list is MCITP: Enterprise Admin, MCITP: Enterprise Messaging (Exchange 2007), Server Virtualization, Vista and Office Deployment, and Office Communications Server with the order of the short list undetermined.

posted on September 14, 2006

Monday September 18th, we start up the Study group again this time focusing on 70-291. It is being hosted at CTE Solutions on Holland St at 6:00. All the information can be found at http://www.owsug.ca/cs/forums/109/ShowPost.aspx. There are still some spots available so if you are interested, check out the information and send an email off to Brad.

I found it helpful, it was that kick in the hind end to get me going and I passed the 70-290 exam at the end of June.  Congratulation to Ben who also passed the exam a couple days back.
