    Hi All,

    You all know what the MCSE stands for, right? If you don't, it's Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer.

    Well the term "engineer" is protected in alot of places - Canada and parts of the US (eg Texas) for example. And there has already been a case where Microsoft Canada was sued over this. Hence one of the reasons why MS has change the name of the MCP program.

    Now what about the term "Architect", well it is a protected term also. So why isn't there an uprising with this term, the answer lays here.

    Just alittle bit of info for you guys :)

    All it takes is a smidge of common sense, and the problems go away. Props to the ARB for not being oversensitive to the use of terminology by those in unrelated fields. :)
