I have been a developer in the IT profession for several years now and finally got in a position to go after MS certs.

Now, correct me if I am wrong, but there is really no reason to persue the MCSD any longer, but rather go for the MCTS/MCPD in different fields. Which really does suck considering I just paid for 2 MCSD preparation classes in Florida.. (looks like a vacation now.. lol).

But, anyways.. is that what I should be going after? MCTS/MCPD?

Thanks

Welcome to CF and with regards to your question you're better off checking on Microsoft's web site.

 

Well, I did check on MS Site and they tell you details about the certs, but that really doesn't tell me from a 'cert seeking' point of view which one I should pursuit. I was hoping here I might find advice from other 'cert seekers'.

 

Hi Welcome

 

Wag -

Actually, I haven't done any of the exams yet, I just signed up for a couple of the classroom training courses to prepare for 305 (just to really see how the classroom training material stacks up to the exams.)

 

I'm no programmer... but I typically advise that you do the oldest version you can, then upgrade to newer versions. As Ken stated, the older versions are still widely used by companies.
