Thanks for all the advice I picked up here, I passed my 70-271 exam so I guess I'm now a Microsoft Certified Professional! Woooooo

I do seem to be having some problem registering on the Microsoft MCP site, I log in with my Windows Live ID but then get asked for a "Microsoft Certification ID" and an "Access Code" but none of those match the information on the printout I was given by Pearson Vue after my exam, I have emailed Microsoft but they don't seem to want to reply to me lol.

If anyone can help me figure out where I'm going wrong I'd be very greatful.

I'm also considering doing either the Wireless# from CWNP next or Network+, as the Comptia exams are so expensive I might just brush up on my networking using the Sybex book I have for N+ and then focus on working towards the Wireless# exam - the CWNP forum seems awfully quiet so I thought I'd see if anyone in here had any ideas while I was trying to get help to register as an MCP.

Thanks again everyone for the help and advice.

Well done.

70-272??? - MCDST

Thanks Kat, I had considered completing my MCDST but there are so many things I want to do and wanted to get another "entry level" cert in a slightly different area, I will probably finish my MCDST later in the summer unless I have landed a job in an entirely different area by then.

 

Yeh cool, why not..

Kat

 

Congrats .

 

Congrats on the pass, good job!

Im with Wagnerk on what to do next though, I feel that having "Desktop Support Techician" will aid you in finding a job.

Good luck in whatever path you choose

 

Thanks guys, sounds like I'll just have to wait on Microsoft emailing me then

I'll have a read through the 272 part of my Sybex book and have a think about finishing the MCDST, I guess that is more likely to get me a job than Wireless#.

 

I had the same problem one month ago. I e-mailed them and they answered in 2 weeks . I solved it by resetting the access code few times. If it still cracks reset it and try it second day. I think it is bug on MS server.

 

I agree with Ken and nX... get 70-272 out of the way. The material is related and will most definitely be helpful in finding a job. Wireless# isn't nearly as well known... and personally, I'm not gonna hire someone simply because they know wireless. Now, give me someone who can support end users in a Windows-based environment, and I'll definitely consider hiring them!

 

Congratulations on the pass

Now go and get drunk then think about your next step

 

Congrats on the pass - 272 of course! MCDST so when you need to upgrade to the Vista Support cert it will be much easier!

 

congrats on the pass - and exactly what Zimbo said - the completed MCDST will make your progression onto being Vista certified all the more simple.
