70-536 is a prerequisite for several Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) certifications. Passing 70-536 alone will not get you a Microsoft certification; passing an MCTS exam will not get you the MCP credential.

Q. Am I a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) if I earn a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) certification?

A. Yes and no. The term MCP is used both as a general term for all Microsoft certified professionals and as the name of a credential. As an MCTS, you become part of the Microsoft certified professional community, with access to all MCP benefits, information, and activities. But you do not earn a credential called "MCP." You should use the MCTS credential on your resumé and your business card, which indicates your specialty and also shows that you are a member of the MCP community.
