We're updating the MLSS and MLSE accreditations to reflect our latest technologies. The updated MLSS exams will be available for you to take from week commencing 23 February 2009 while the update MLSE exams will be available from week commencing 2 March 2009. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In response to partner feedback requesting the simplification of our licensing accreditations, we have also created a new 'starter' accreditation - Microsoft Licensing Sales Specialist Lite (MLSS Lite). Partners can take the MLSS Lite exams as of week commencing 16 February 2009. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; If you have any queries, they can call Ask Partner Tel: 0870 60 70 700 or email: &lt;a href="mailto:askpartner@microsoft-contact.co.uk"&gt;askpartner@microsoft-contact.co.uk&lt;/a&gt;.
