ages ago i attended the launch of visual studio 2005 to which microsoft kindly gave me a coupon to sit the mcts exam for free.
pretty cool, but as you can guess it requires you to do a bit of revising. correction a lot of revising, writing in books, in my pads, etc. scaring people with my doodles on the train as i sift thru another 1000 page manual.
but boy is it worth it, you gain so much more with it, it goes on your cv and you get to keep it for the lifetime of the product (unlike mcp’s which are 4 years).
worth doing!

New goal assigned to myself… PHP certification
I’ve been programming with php for about 5 years now and finally it’s turning into a respected and worthwhile language in the IT community. So i’ve bought myself a zend php certification and I’ll be studying this language, brushing up on things, and learning all the bits i’ve missed.
The exam lasts 90 minutes and my aim is to take it at the end of march, wish me luck!
