Microsoft SQL Server Certification

Master the new features and capabilities of Microsoft SQL Server by earning a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) or Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP) certification. Both certifications help you gain hands-on experience, in-depth expertise, and industry-recognized validation, which inspire customer and employer confidence in your skills.

Overview

The Microsoft SQL Server 2008 certifications offer you more choice and simpler paths to achieve your certification goals. These certifications differentiate technology skills and job-role skills, and validate actual IT roles.

Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist

By earning an MCTS certification, you can display your in-depth technical knowledge and skill in using key technology areas in Microsoft SQL Server 2008. You can demonstrate your depth of knowledge in one specific area, earn multiple MCTS certifications to show breadth of knowledge across different areas, or build on one MCTS certification to earn a Professional Series credential.

Three MCTS certifications on
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 are available.

Microsoft Certified IT Professional



When you earn an MCITP certification, you demonstrate your expertise in using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 to excel in a specific job role. Professionals who earn the MCITP credential typically have at least two to three years of experience using the technologies covered in the exam and have already earned the MCTS credential.
