Hi Guy's

I was just speculating on the new MS certs. Unlike the "old" versions: MCDST, MCSA, MCSE, etc you kinda knew the "level" of them, with the new certs (on the support side) there are just 2 MCTS & MCITP, so... I'm guess (judging on the "new" MCDST cert), that this is how it'll go:

MCDST -> MCITP: Enterprise Support Tech (MCITP: Consumer Support Tech for home users)

MCSA -> MCITP: Enterprise Support Admin

MCSE -> MCITP: Enterprise Support Engineer

What are your thoughts on this?

I bet MS is going to split the "Office" certs into two:

1. To continue with the User side (MOS) and

2. To start the technicial side:
A. the techical/support side (eg: MCTS: Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2005 and the likes) and the:
B. programming/developing side (MCTS: Office 2007 Client: Application Development and the likes)

I can see that IT is just going to get more and more complicated, it's not going to happen in a few years time, it's happening now Oh well, it's off to study...

Yep Beta 2 is currently out, Beta 3 is due out 1st quarter 2007 (around the Jan/Feb time), looking forward for the beta 3 release as this is when MS is going to release the Admins tools that will install (and work) on Vista (granted it's only going to be the beta verison of the admin pack for Longhorn, but it's got to be better than always having to load up remote desktop just to use AD User's & Computers)

Yes, I believe that the 71-620 (the beta version of the exam) is going to end on the 21st of Dec, so the final version of the 70-620 should be out soon.

Must be the 71-622 then, as the 71-621 doesn't end until the 5th of Jan...
