First MCSA/MCSE 2003 Core Exams To Beta in June


5/21/2003 -- Microsoft's certification group has announced simultaneous beta test dates for two new core exams on the MCSA/MCSE for Windows Server 2003 tracks.

Exams 70-290: Managing and Maintaining a Windows Server 2003 Environment and 70-291: Implementing, Managing, and Maintaining a Windows Server 2003 Network Infrastructure will both be beta tested June 4 through 15. The exams will be numbered 71-290 and 71-290, respectively.

Passing both 70-290 and 70-291 exams satisfies the Core: Network Systems portion of the MCSA on Windows Server 2003 track, and two of the four required for the Core: Network Systems portion of the MCSE on Windows Server 2003.

Microsoft Beta exams are free but typically only offered to qualified subscribers of Microsoft's MCP Newsflash; to find out how to become a beta tester, go here.

5/28/03: Anonymous says: thats true and i completely agree with you
5/28/03: Anonymous says: To the person who posted my reply to the degree issue, I have to say that while i've been called a idiot on more than a few occasions (usually by people who know less than I do), the concept of what I call "framed paper" is quite true. Every certification and the college degree I EARNED is framed and sitting in the bottom of my dresser drawer (I don't need to hang it up to impress people, the quality of my work ethic does that for me) :-)
5/28/03: Anonymous says: Look, Anonymous, I know what you're saying, but the reason that all of the degrees and crap like that are more valuable than work experience in the long run is that any job a person gets is the result of an employer being willing to give them an opportunity. A person has to take initiative on their own in order to become motivated to work all the way through a bachelor's degree (or beyond) and that's why it is more special than "10 years +" actual experience in the workplace. It takes a lot of inner commitment to earn a degree from a legit college or university, whereas practically anyone can be successful at practically any given job if the pay is right (or even if it's not, everyone needs money to live). I guess my point, however ackward it may be, is that most people who've finished college are probably ultimately more proud of that than any job they have or have had, and for good reason.
5/28/03: Anonymous says: ...and putting job experience on the resume or bragging about previous job on the interview aren't so reliable since anyone can make up what they've done in the job while the actual job wasn't even half of what's described on the resume or interview. I've seen and heard people did it and got away with the job they wanted, they lied about the previous job or "polished" the lousy low paying job to be a bright and promising job just by adding stuff to the job description, not entirely different but surely made it sound like a much better job. Not a crime but still a lie but anyway they bought it and hired him...not only one case like this, many has happened...
5/29/03: Anonymous says: I've known more than a few people who got caught with lies on the ole resume (trust me, you just don't want to do this). As a result, they can no longer find employment the field, due to the fact that word does get out (might be illegal, but it happens). The first rule I learned was NEVER put anything on a resume that you haven't actually done, earned, or been awarded (usually when it gets found out, it's grounds for termination, as the employee has no recourse under the law, due to the fact the employment application or company policy usually has the statement 'any inaccurate or false information is grounds for termination', which the prospective employee finds out when he or she signs the application (or takes the employment offer).
5/29/03: Anonymous says: ... which is why, in the absence of years of 'experience' in the field, it is imperative to at least get as much education as possible. for those trying to enter IT-related fields, a BA at least is probably imperative right now, and graduate school is never a bad idea to have taken at least some grad level courses.
5/29/03: Anonymous says: I would agree, given the current market, there are very few (if any) entry level positions open, thus making the absolute minimum of a degree plus 3 years of experience the norm for anyone wanting to get a job. However, given the recent downturn, employers usually wind up getting people a LOT more qualified than this (degree plus 6-10 years, dual degrees, degree, cert, exp, etc).
5/29/03: Anonymous says: Does Anyone have the registration codes for the exams?
