in MCTS / MCITP on Windows 2008 General
Passed 70-647 yesterday with a 940 to finally complete the EA track. Study material used was MS-press book, Sybex, TechNet and CBT-Nuggets.

That's my Microsoft exams over for a while and now onto something much more demanding - becoming a father !

Good luck to everyone else with any upcoming exams.

Cheers

Dan

    An even bigger congrats on the soon to be fatherhood.
    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.

    Yes, paid for the Nuggets.

    Just got the EA cert through the post, i'm a 'charter member' so I guess there can't be that many EA's around yet (under 5,000 ?)

    Now do I replace the MCSE cert on my desk with the MTCIP:EA Charter one !?

    I just can't justify 900 dollars for study material. :-\ I'm trying to get my company to pay for it but I have a feeling it won't go through.

    No, it appears pretty random. I'm an EA too but passed a few months ago and didn't get Charter member.

    Congrats on the cert though, but trust me the being a father thing is going to be much harder! :)

    $900 is still cheaper than a course would be.

    In the UK an MS course for 70-647 is around £1,500 ($2,250)
