| Hello Folks(am new to forum, wanted to share ideas) . MCT is the highest premier MS certification that professional deliver MOC technically. One must be MCSE, knowledgeable in CISCO technology, pass the presentation skills offered by CTEC and pay the application fee. Having obtain the certificatation, i am able to freely roam around equipped with necessary skills. Lots of avenues, one can expand to IT security areas, etc. Good Luck ------------- MCSA-MESSAGING MCSE WIN 2K MCT CCNA |

| The verbage is a little terse and vague. Are you saying that the above are true from your subjective experience or for the standpoint of the industry? Paying a fee, taking a class and passing a test do not always equip someone with the skills needed to keep the attention of a group of students, let alone bring them to actually learn something. I think some of what you are trying to say is true: if you have an MCSE; have an interest in teaching others and some experience leading in group situations; MCT might open up some opportunities for you. But not all people would consider teaching to be their ultimate career goal. ------------- _____________________________ MCSE 2003, MCSE 2000, CCNA |

| I agree with Jeff... They are mostly interested in the fee, unless your a stuttering zombie, who sweats profusely and utters explitives uncontrollably due to turets syndrome you'll pass the presentation skills. (Just kidding...you have to clear and concise) Just out of curiousity, why do you need to know Cisco technology to obtain an MCT? ------------- -rob |

| I don't have an MCT, and I can guarantee you that I could get a teaching job without breaking a sweat. It's most definitely not a requirement for anywhere I would want to teach. Frankly, it's not worth the yearly fee for me to stay MCT certified. ------------- MCSE+I, MCSA: Security, MCDST, MCDBA, OCP, CCNP, CCDP, CNE, SCSA, CCSA, Security+, Linux+, Server+, Network+, A+ |

| Hello Folks, I admired with Jeff's point of view. The situation might be different country-wise. One might require high level of expertise for reasons of Job competition and therefore, tendency is to look something credible and different from others aside from having a regular job in IT areas. Others might have a wrong impression; not all CERT fanatics are good in their choosen path- are called neophytes, career changers. -- Hello rflemen, Everyone's goal depends of its own progression, no matter how material the subject matter is.One might think, A+ might help most,leading to MCSA but,not a prerequisite.You might attended instruction lead class delivered on MOC and briefly touches IP address, in CCNA(as i have attended ILC) explained in detailed. It's really depends on us how to internalized those knowledge in order to grasp more easily the subject matter. . Thanks Mike It's a matter of choice. No one could tell that THIS, THAT, THOSE are good. So long as the progression improves, will ultimately achieved one's goal. best regards ------------- MCSA-MESSAGING MCSE WIN 2K MCT CCNA |

I wouldn't mind teaching just about anywhere. I have considered teaching night classes at two or three colleges around the Nashville area. Actually, the MCT fee is quite expensive to me. Why pay $400 when there aren't any places that require it? Additionally, I don't just want to teach Microsoft - I can teach general networking, security, hardware, Cisco, and other useful technical skills. After all, I teach *now*, just in written form. Teaching requires that you have good presentation skills and that you are able to explain things at an easy-to-understand level. Obviously, you also need to know the material you're teaching as well. ------------- MCSE+I, MCSA: Security, MCDST, MCDBA, OCP, CCNP, CCDP, CNE, SCSA, CCSA, Security+, Linux+, Server+, Network+, A+ |

| Well I feel MCT is a title which guarantees that one has atleast a minimum experience and certification to train people. its acually a recognition given to a person which values.. moreover I agree to the point that money is also involved in it and a non-MCT could also be a good trainer,bcoz I also believe that a Certificate can only take one till Interview Table but Later one has to prove oneself,so certificate is also important.... _____________________________ MCSE(nt4.0,2k,2k3),MCSA(Messaging),MCT,MCDBA |

| To me MCT means you're qualified to teach MOC materials and nothing more and collect those high prices that a few folks can afford. Doesn't mean squat otherwise, just like MCSE title, doesn't necessarily mean you could actually run a network. Since I personally know Mike, I'd would love to be in his class anyday and if I could afford it would gladly pay for a one on one tutoring. I'd learn all this crap in no time then  ------------- MCSE:Security & MCSA:Security, MCDST, MCP XP, CompTIA Sec+, A+ & N+ USAF (68-77) SP K9 Vietnam Vet 1969-DaNang, 1970-Tuy Hoa, Retired Police Detective/Narcotics/K9 |

Wildcat u are very wise ( joda should take note :) ) ! It all depends on the person and his experience. What i do not know is why after 5 years ( official statistics )MCTs tend to stop deliver MOC courses ? . They seem to vanish somewhere ... they progress maybe .. ------------- mcse,ccna |
