Microsoft Changes Certificates?

sharpescalade

..ok so after 3 1/2 months I get my welcome kit for my MCP..

Its such a major disappointment, it looks NOTHING like the usual cert and ID card!

Its white and blue?!



Has anyone seen this or did I get the wrong KIT?

I finished the 70-272 exam. The cert is thin as tissue paper and no security background, It shows its from Singapore. The welcome shipping kit DOUBLES as a cert holder, all mangled from shipping and everything, WTF?

The ID card has NO front hologram logo, its on the BACK?!....this kit is worse than CompTIA kits and I am really upset about waiting this long and getting this!

Can anyone help me figure out if this is how Microsoft does thier new certs now or what??

It looks like they changed the design and materials, probably to save money. You got shafted.

What do you think you will get when you get your MCSA Rick?? Chris I got the same two certificates last month when I completed my MCDBA and MCSE Messaging Exchange 2000 Server and I don't mind because you still get a good ID card and lapel pin. What I don't like is my damn mailman/person who fold the large envelope and bends it into my small mailbox. I flaten it out anyway. Oracle gives you a nice light beige certificate but no ID card or lapel pin

So far the CISSP certificate is the nicest one i've gotten. Followed closely by C|EH.

It seems that m$ did so due to their certs being copied. I do like the new look but the old certs looks much better.

I have been waiting 3 months for mine, I guess there is still hope.

Have you contacted Microsoft? [email protected].

Have you went to the MCP member site and requested your welcome kit?

and also, dont forget you have to verify your address after requesting it.

I actually had to call them to request the packet after I took the test becasue there was a problem with the access code they gave me. I called a couple weeks ago and found out that they had two MCP ids for me and they didn't even see that I passed my last cert. I had to send in my request for a packet again and now i'm trying to get with my testing center to have my info for the 290 sent back in. As long as I get it all taken are of before I take the 291 I really don't care.

Does anyone have a picture of the CISSP or the CEH certificate?
