Details on New MCSD, MCSE Exams Leak Out


9/12/2001 -- According to a recent edition of the Certification Corner e-mail newsletter, several .NET-related MCSD exams have been labeled and are in the works. They are:

  • 70-300 Analyzing Requirements and Designing Solutions Architecture for Windows .NET
  • 70-304 Developing Windows Applications with Visual C++
  • 70-305 Developing Web Applications with VB.NET
  • 70-306 Developing Windows Applications with VB.NET
  • 70-310 Developing Applications on the .NET Framework
  • 70-315 Developing Web Applications with C#
  • 70-316 Developing Windows Applications with C#

One or more of these exams may also apply to the new mid-level developer certification Microsoft is creating.

When asked for comment, Microsoft declined to officially acknowledge these exams. However, if this list remains intact, it follows a familiar scheme that Microsoft has been following, only this time the company is heavily pushing the familiar and omnipresent .NET technology.

Certification Corner also lists details of Microsoft's forthcoming exams for the MCSE track:

  • 70-280 Network Systems and Directory Services Fundamentals
  • 70-272 Migrating from NT 4.0 to Windows .NET Server

The 70-280 exam, according to the newsletter, will be an offering under the new "Systems Administrator" track that Microsoft is developing; there's no indication whether it will also be an MCSE elective. Microsoft has also declined to comment on the development of these exams.  -MCPMag.com

9/18/01: Mohammad says: I do not think the new MCSD track will be available soon. Microsoft has not officially approved the schedule yet, and also note that the Visual Studio.Net is already in its Beta 2 release. It usually takes 3-9 months after the release of a new product, so that you can take its beta exam. So you should allow at least 1 year from now for yourself. Meanwhile, get Beta 2 version of .Net and final release when it comes available and have a LOT of exercise based on .Net framework. I am an MCSD now and I know that what does it mean to pass "Solution Architectures exam". It really requires experience in design and development. So it is not as easy as learning the syntax of C# to get MCSD based on the new track. Good Luck. PS: For latest information on MCSD track, always take a look at: http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/default.asp?PageID=mcp&PageCall=requirements&SubSite=cert/mcsd&AnnMenu=mcsd
