Yes, Virginia, there are MCPs!
Chuck Hickson picked up on a subtle but significant thing in my call to cams yesterday:
I didn't think MCP's as such, existed anymore. I know "I'm an MCTS" doesn't rhyme with "I'm a PC", but isn't it odd to promote a dead credential?
Do MCPs exist anymore? Heck, yes!
Okay, so maybe it's been a few years since Microsoft has used the term "MCP."
But really: what else are we going to call ourselves? What else embraces all of our certified IT Pros, Developers, Dynamics specialists, Office specialists, and architects?
Sure, I have an MCITP certification, and an MCSE certification, and an MCDST certification, and an MCTS certification.
But I am an MCP.
We are a diverse community spanning a multitude of professions, and we deserve a shared badge to reflect it. Me, I kind of like this one:_thumb.jpg)
So heads up: I’m taking it back!
Microsoft. Certified. Professional.
Who’s with me?
(I’m going to get in so much trouble over this…)
