- MS CRM Install & Config Master Certification - how many exams???
- Posted by Antonio Grazioli on July 4th, 2005
I am planning to get the "CRM Installation & Config Master Certification"....
I already took the three "base" Certification Exams for CRM...(plus I
already have Exam 70-228 on SQL Server)
Micrsoft (US Site) states that you need 4 exams (and this would mean I am
already certifided right now), but the Italian sub-site says you need 6 exams
to get this certification...
I alreday wrote to MBS group in order to get a clarification, but no reply
until now...
Is any of you certified on CRM? if yes, which certification and how many
exams did you take???
regards,
Antonio

You need 6 exams for Certified Master MSCRM Installation & Configuration
Two of those are CRM exams. So you have 4 more to get!
Details are on Partnersource, but in essence:
Exchange 2003 (or 2000) MCP
SQL Server 2000 Admin MCP
Managing and Maintaining a Windows Server 2003 (or 2000) Environment MCP
Windows 2000 (or 2003) Network Security Design MCP

Yes, it is incorrect! Probably because its based on an earlier (and
incorrect) MBS page.
As I said, the correct version is on published on Partnersource and is as I
summarised.
I have this certification, by the way. Along the way, I spent many emails
trying to clarify conflicting lists of certification requirements!!

only 4 are needed...and this would mean I am already certified...:-((
