The New Generation of
Microsoft Certifications
You show your skill on the job. Certification shows your skill to the world.

Certification makes the difference
The New Generation of Microsoft certifications is
more specific and targeted to reflect IT Professional
and Developer job roles and as such, help profes-
sionals in the IT industry prove their expertise to
hiring managers and industry peers. Consisting of
three series and four credentials, the new generation
of Microsoft certifications also provides a simpler
and more targeted framework for IT managers
to validate core technical professional skills and
architectural skills.
Enhanced certifications give you every advantage
• Focus on your success: they are simple and clear.
• Take a more cost-effective and targeted approach:
certify with fewer exams in less time.
• Be more relevant on the job and in IT: distinguish
yourself with skills for in-demand jobs.
• Prove yourself current and proficient: master
Microsoft technologies and best practices.
Microsoft Press Training Kits
Microsoft Press publishes comprehensive, from-the-
source Training Kits that are specifically devised to
give IT Professionals and Developers the best pre-
paration for Microsoft certification exams. Microsoft
Press Training Kits are written by experts in the field
who have years of experience and expertise, ranging
from leading developers in the Microsoft product
groups to top industry educators and contributors to
The Technology Series:
Prove Core Technical Skills on Microsoft
Technology
The Technology Series certifications enable
professionals to target specific technologies and
distinguish themselves by demonstrating in-depth
knowledge of and expertise in the broad range
of technologies with which they work. Microsoft
Technology Specialists are consistently capable
of implementing, building, troubleshooting, and
debugging a particular Microsoft technology.
The Technology Series certifications:
• Typically consist of one to three exams.
• Are focused on a key Microsoft product
or technology.
• Do not include job-role skills.
There are currently five Microsoft certified Tech-
nology Specialist certifications. More will become
available as new technologies are introduced.
The five certifications are:
• .NET Framework 2.0 Web Applications
• .NET Framework 2.0 Windows Applications
• .NET Framework 2.0 Distributed Applications
• SQL Server 2005
• BizTalk Server 2006
The Professional Series:
Professional Skills and a Proven Ability to
Perform on the Job
Professional Series credentials validate a com-
prehensive set of skills required to be successful
on the job. These skills include design, project
management, operations management, and
planning, and they are contextual to the job
role. By validating a more comprehensive set of
skills, these credentials give candidates and their
hiring managers a reliable indicator of on-the-job
performance.
The Professional Series certifications:
• Typically consist of one to three exams.
• Have one or more prerequisites from the
Technology series.
• Are focused on a single job role.
• Require recertification to maintain active status.
Microsoft currently offers two Professional
series credentials:
1. Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP)
2. Microsoft Certified Professional Developer
(MCPD)
