For those who knows what this is about, it back at Prometric. For those who don’t, it is a plan which allows you to retake an exam in case you failed the first attempt, at NO cost. For more information, please refer to Prometric.

I had just attended the live meeting. This presentation is regarding the future of existing MCSA/MCSE 2000/2003 certifications and some brief information on the up-coming Longhorn certifications.

• All MCSA/MCSE 2000 related exams, including upgrade exams, will retire on March 31, 2008.
• MCSA/MCSE 2000/2003 credentials will not retire and will remain on the transcript indefinitely.
• There will be no upgrade path for MCSA/MCSE 2000 to Longhorn Server certifications.
• There will be two upgrade exams for MCSA/MCSE 2003 to Longhorn Server certifications. One for MCSA 2003, and one for MCSE 2003.
• MCSA/MCSE 2000/2003 certifications will not be replaced. They each represents their respective technologies.
• MCSA/MCSE 2003 upgrade to Longhorn will be through the MCTS certifications.
• Exchange 2007 certifications will be independent and not included in server certifications.

Not much in-depth details regarding Longhorn certifications had been revealed, but the certifications will be based on the “New Generation” certification framework.
