Is there any word on how much longer they are going to offer the 2003 MCSA / MCSE

I'm looking to jump back in and get my MCSA / MCSE 2003 as I already have my MCSE on Windows 2000. As such, I am trying to determine if there any word on how much longer they are going to offer the 2k3 MCSA / MCSE.

I figured I could leverage the MCSA / MCSE moving forward into the 2008 track (someday, probably 2011 because I run so damn late getting these things lol).

Thank you!

    I'm not sure to be honest, microsoft havn't said anything about it, which is a good sign :)

    FYI: Windows xp support has been extended until 2014, which means the exam will more than likely follow that, as microsoft retire exams when they stop support.

    hope this helps you :)

    Well, they retired the 2000 exams in 2008, so it seems like you'd get to 2011 with that math ;)

    They usually stop them in March, and you can see what they're discontinuing here: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcpexams/status/examstoretire.mspx

    Cool! Heck, it may take me to 2011 to finish! lol.

    So, from what i understand, 290 is not too bad.
    291 is like the old 216 - the original beast

    how is 293 and 294?

    thanks!
