First off, you might want to study the acronym so you can spell it right on your CV, once you get it.

The MCSE doesn't have anything to do with 1st-level support. If you're looking for a 1st and 2nd level support certification, you should consider the MCDST. What other certifications do you have?

How much system admin experience do you have? If you've been working with Windows Server for a year in a multi-server environment, you're probably ready for the MCSA and MCSE.

That said, you don't need to take an expensive course. Just grab a few books and start studying.

 

Hi Welcome

If you have at least one year of experience implementing and administering network operating systems and desktop operating systems. This what Microsoft say, then go for the MCSE but if you havent then get some more experience before doing so.

Like BM said have a look at the MCDST

Good luck with the Studies.

 

1st of All Many thanks for your quick response.

I have been system administrating for like 2years been involved using setting new user ID, AD Group policy and other features that i learned by experiance

thank you again

 

In this case I would suggest the MCSA track. MCSE is more with planning and design. MCSA is more to the administrator.

 

Welcome to CF and since you have two years hands on experience I'd advise you go with your instints. If you feel you're determined and can tackle the MCSE then go for it. Cheerio

 

Good Day All,

Thank you all for you support, from your experience guys how hard is it.

I belive gaining MCSA is part or lets same path to achieve MCSE,
