SETTING YOUR MICROSOFT CERTIFICATION GOALS FOR 2013

-------------------------------
FOR A FULL TREATISE OF THIS TOPIC, PLEASE READ AT: INTENSE SCHOOL WEBSITE.
-------------------------------
At the beginning of every year,
people across the globe make
resolutions on what to achieve, or
what to do better, or what they want
to quit doing. It’s called the New
Year resolution. This is the year
2013, a time when technology is
crossing boundaries and innovations
meet possibilities, a year when
Microsoft is consolidating on its
cloud offerings with emerging new
certification trends. How do you
shape up for the challenges of this
year? I want to show you a series of
paths you can take to ensure that
you remain relevant as a technology
specialist and solution provider.
I am going to discuss your options,
categorized depending on where
you’re at, so you can make the
appropriate decision:
1. First-level technology entrants – the
very basic career options and
certification paths.
2. Mid-level technology professionals –
how to move up the career and
certification paths available.
3. Senior-level technology professionals
– how to upgrade your current
certifications to the new on-premise
and cloud-based standards.

FIRST-LEVEL TECHNOLOGY ENTRANT
If you are absolutely new and you
want to make a career in IT, I
welcome you to the new exciting
world of Microsoft offerings. I
recommend you take a shot at the
Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA)
certification. The first good news
here is that the MTA does not expire
and it is a single examination
course. The beauty of this is that it
exposes you to infrastructure,
database design or software
development; it is not combined, so
you have to choose your area of
interest, and that is dependent on
your career goals.
