我今天一早到公司,打開信箱,快速瀏覽一下mail的時候,看到一封主旨是Microsoft Certification Policy Change and Your MCPD/MCITP Credential的信,立刻就趕緊點開來看.

信裡面一開頭就說是個好消息,讓我稍稍放心一下,原本還以為是微軟又要來A錢,要大家再去考什麼鬼考試.來維持目前的認證.信件的內容節錄如下:
Dear Microsoft Certified Professional,
      We are pleased to inform you about a recent Microsoft Certification policy change that affects your Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP) or Microsoft Certified Professional Developer (MCPD) credential.

      In response to customer feedback, Microsoft has eliminated the requirement to recertify, or refresh, your MCITP or MCPD certification every three years. This is good news for you; there is no action required to maintain the certifications you hold today.

也就是說根據客戶的反應,微軟取消了每三年必須去考試來維持MCPD或MCITP的制度.這真是一個天大的好消息啊,不然在這樣不景氣的時代,每一科考試的費用是美金80元,換做是我,根本就不會想要去考.賺錢比較重要啦.誰管他什麼鬼認證要去renew.

我考過MCPD的紀念文 今天考過70-551和70-431,拿到MCPD和MCTS的認證了
