Upgrade Vista to EDA7

Hi guys, I've currently passed the 70-620 Vista exam and I'm trying to find a right path to upgrade to Win7 distinction. I know that the EDST:7 requires the HDI cert but I'm trying to avoid taking that test. I think I'll be fine with the EDA:7. My question is what are the Vista/upgrade exams I should take to attain the EDA7. These Win7 exam paths are new to me and they're still kind of confusing.

Thanks alot

MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Administrator is a new certification. There is no upgrade. You will need to have both the 686 and Windows 7 Configuring.

Gandalph,

I hate to tell you this but we are talking about Enterprise Desktop Administrator, not Enterprise Desktop Support Technician. There is no upgrade for EDA, only for EDST.

The EDA is a new certification that maps to job role very different from a support technician.
