in MCDST
Hey, after reading a few topics in this forum which has lead me to some confusion. Few months ago i had bought the MCP book by ms but then few weeks ago my neighbor had who i often talked to came up with the topic about my studies. I told him i am going for the MCP since he is a IT Manager at aero British space he said i should start off with the MSCDT but since going for the mscdt i still obtain mcp status so whats the difference between the two.
Thanks Richard

Well, MCP is basically any test that you pass that MS offers. MSCDT is certified desktop technician. If you were to just focus on xp for MSCDT (2 tests) you're going to end up with MCP regardless.
Which book did you pick up?MCP/MCSA/MCSE

What exam does the MCP book cover?
It is possible that he didn't know that you will get the MCP after taking one of the MCDST exams.Andy
