MCP - Microsoft Certified Professional
MCP certification indicates in-depth knowledge of at least one Microsoft product. It is a great stepping stone to higher level certifications such as MCSA or MCSE.
Career Opportunities
Earning a Microsoft certification verifies your expertise in working with Microsoft products and technologies. A Microsoft certification shows that you are a technical leader with the ability to successfully implement Microsoft business solutions for your organization or client.
Validation of Knowledge and Skills
The information technology (IT) industry, your employer, clients, and peers will recognize your MCP credential as validation of the knowledge and skills you have gained through experience.
A Firm Foundation of Skills
Preparation for certification requires that you cover all aspects of the product or technology you are studying. The rigorous exam development process includes extensive job task analyses, reviews by internal and external technology experts, and beta testing to ensure the relevancy and accuracy of each certification.
Certification
Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) candidates are required to pass one current Microsoft certification exam that provides a valid and reliable measure of technical proficiency and expertise (a current exam is any that has not been retired).
Note: Exam 70-058: Networking Essentials is an exception to the one exam requirement. Passing this exam alone will not certify an individual as an MCP.
