    Are any of these accredited by some other organisation than MicroSoft?

        i have a few of them from my first couple of jobs when i was just a youngster making my way in IT, the companies i worked for pushed us to do them as it helps towards making a company a Gold partner which is probably worth more to them than the actual certificate is to you

        the single worst developer I have ever worked with in my whole career (and there have been a few) got 100% for one of them (think it was the tcp/ip exam)

          Waste of time imo, not worth the paper they are written on. On the job training counts for a million times more than most of those Micro$haft certifications for most sensible companies.

            We know that but it’s the non IT literate HR departments who send the job requirements to the agents that need educating, some won't look at you without some sort of M*** cert.
            Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
