What is MCSE Certification?

The Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) credential is the premier certification for professionals who analyze the business requirements and design and implement the infrastructure for business solutions based on the Microsoft Windows® operating system and Microsoft Servers software.

Gaining MCSE Certification will help you gain recognition as a technical professional with proven skills. The MCSE Certification can assist you in securing a more satisfying and challenging job, earning a promotion, or aquiring a raise. With the high demand for tech sector workers, the time to get MCSE Certification is now.

The MCSE Certification is probably the most widely recognized and credible certification available. With MCSE Certification comes credibility that you have qualified technical skills.

For employers, hiring an associate with an MCSE Certification, or training their current employees for an MCSE Certification, serves as a guarantee that the individual has gained the necessary competency in certain job-related skills. The MCSE Certification assures that your new employee will be a productive member of your organization from day one, without weeks, or even months in training.

How many exams do you have to take to be MCSE certified?

Microsoft offers the Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE certification) credential for individuals who pass designated exams for that certification.

The MCSE Certification requires you to pass four operating system (core) exams, one design core exam, and two elective exams from Microsoft's approved exam listing. The MCSE Core exams require candidates to prove their expertise with desktop, server, and networking components.

How do you prepare for the MCSE exams?
