This book also offers you an added bonus of accessing Exam Cram practice tests
online. All you need is a connection to the Internet and you can take advantage
of these practice exam questions right from your very own web browser! This
software simulates the Microsoft testing environment with similar types of questions
that you're likely to see on the actual Microsoft exam. We also strongly
recommend that you install, configure, and play around with the network operating
system software that you'll be tested on: Nothing beats hands-on experience
and familiarity when it comes to understanding the questions you're likely
to encounter on a certification test. Book learning is essential, but without a
doubt, hands-on experience is the best teacher of all!
The Microsoft Certification Program
Microsoft currently offers several certification titles, each of which boasts its
own special abbreviation. (As a certification candidate and computer professional,
you need to have a high tolerance for acronyms.) Except for the MCSA
...
... and the Microsoft Certified Learning Consultant
(MCLC) designations, the current certification credentials that Microsoft offers
fall into one of two major categories—Microsoft Certifications for Application
Developers and Microsoft Certifications for Information Technology (IT) Professionals.
NOTE
The MCT credential is offered to qualified instructors whom Microsoft can certify to

deliver
training classes to both IT professionals and application developers using Microsoft
Official Curriculum (MOC) courseware. MCTs whose job roles have expanded to incorporate
a high level of expertise in designing and delivering customized learning solutions for
customers can earn the MCLC title.
The Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP)
Title
The easiest certification title to earn is the MCP designation. This entry-level
certification is designed to provide an individual with the first step on the road
to higher levels of Microsoft certification. An MCP candidate needs to pass only
one current Microsoft certification exam from any current Microsoft certification
track. You become an MCP after successfully passing at least one qualifying
exam—qualifying MCP exams include tests from both the application developer
certification category and from the IT professional certification category.
However, not all Microsoft exams qualify an individual for MCP status—for example,
passing 70-290 Exam, Designing and Providing

Microsoft Volume LicenseSolutions to Large Organizations, does not certify an

individual as a Microsoft
Certified Professional (MCP). The list of qualifying certification tracks from which
a candidate must successfully pass an exam to achieve MCP status are as follows:
. MCDST on Windows XP
. MCSA on Windows 2000
. MCSA: Security on Windows 2000
. MCSA Exam on Windows Server 2003
. MCSE on Windows 2000
. MCSE: Security on Windows 2000
. MCSE on Windows Server 2003
. MCDBA on Microsoft SQL Server 2000
. MCAD on Microsoft .NET
. MCSD on Microsoft .NET
. MCSD on Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0
Microsoft Certifications for Application

All of Microsoft's published objectives for the MCSA/MCSE 70-290are covered in this book. To help you easily find the sections that

directly support particular objectives, we've listed all of the exam objectives below,

and mapped them to the Chapter number in which they are covered. We've also assigned

numbers to each objective, which we use in the subsequent Table of Contents and again

throughout the book to identify objective coverage. In some chapters, we've made the

judgment that it is probably easier for the student to cover objectives in a slightly

different sequence than the order of the published Microsoft objectives. By reading this

study guide and following the corresponding objective list, you can be sure that you have

studied 100% of Microsoft's MCSA/MCSE 70-290 Exam objectives.
