Is the MCP not listed as a cert on the MS transcript?

My printable cert (from the MS site) listed my cert (620) as MCTS in Sept. After passing the 272 exam on Nov 1, the transcript on the MS site only indicates I passed the 272 exam, but does not list it as a MCP cert. Also, the old certs are not listed on the new cert wallet cards. Do you(can you) just order another wallet card for the old certs also?(even after already receiving a new cert card). The MS site gave no answer on that question. (if they did, it must require passing another exam just to understand/interpret their website/faqs)

They generally say that you only get your MCTS with the Vista Exam. For some reason they do not list it as a MCP until you pass another exam like the 270 or 290. I have had discussions on this before with members since microsoft says you become MCP with any exam on any current track. You do get a MCP id number with your MCTS though.

Hope this helps

272 should make you an MCP. I'd give it a couple of days and then give them a call if it's not updated.

The new wallet cards do not list the old certs on them. I believe they'll only list MCTS/MCITP

But, if you have the MCTS/MCITP card, will MS still provide a card for the older certifications ??? As far as the updated cert on the transcript, I just found it odd that the "pass" would already be updated on the transcript, but not the MCP cert.

Well, earlier today only the pass was listed. I just checked and now, the MCP is listed.

Yea, they'll send you out another card for your MCP. All you have to do is order the welcome kit.

I can confirm. My MCTS card did not list my MCP on it, but oddly enough, my "old" card that I received after my MCSA listed my MCTS and MCP on it.
