Today I browsed a bit the mcp site to look for the welcome pack and other benefits. I found the logo builder that allows you to builup a MCTS logo specific for the certifications you obtained. I created mine for the MCTS: .net framework 2.0 distributed development. and it looks like this:

Nice eh ?!? :-p Anayways I alos subscribed to the Redmond Maganzine and wanted to buy some stuff form the mcp estore, but the last didn’t go through because I ordered for about $ 28, but the crazy people at Microsoft charged $ 43 shipping costs for only 3 writing pens. No way I’m gonna pay for that and as a surplus you got a warning that the goods ordered internationaly can be charged again the amount of the bought goods (so $ 28) at customs. For that money I can buy myself a very nice pen here in Belgium.

Today I passed my second certification exam. I took the 70-529 exam
(Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0: Distributed Application Development). I got 93,7% which is not
bad if I say so myself

Next on the menu is the 70-526 exam (Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 – Windows-Based Client Development). I think I will take this some near the end of May. I do hope this one will go as good as the previous two.

So I’m already an MCTS in my Distributed development track

This is my plan for 2007:

February : 70-536 : 89,4%
March: 70-529 : 93,7%
May: 70-526
July: 70-528

Today I passed my first certification exam. I took the 70-536 exam (Application Development Foundation .net 2.0). I got 89,4% which is not bad if I say so myself

Next on the menu is the 70-529 exam (Distributed Application Development in .net 2.0). I think I will take this some near the end of march. I do hope this one will go as good as the previous one, but I think it’s more difficult.

This is my plan for 2007:

February : 70-536
March: 70-529
May: 70-526
July: 70-528
