MSCA Certification

[clickmike]

I have done a couple of your course and have decided that I want to persue my MSCA certification, the first step. The three courses that I can find on your site help you towards your MSCE for 70-293, 70-294 and 70-298 exams, 3 out of the 7 exams required.

Is there anything to help achieve the first step in getting your MSCA with 70-290, 70-291, 70-270 and possibly 70-299 exams?

We have created a matrix that explains which trainings tie in with which exams. You can locate the matrix here (http://www.trainsignal.com/Windows-Server-2003-Active-Directory-Training-P15.aspx). Scroll down to the part labeled Windows Server 2003 Active Directory Training Package Course FAQs and you'll see a link titled Click Here For The Exam Preparation Chart. That should give you the information you'll need.

Hi,

I have the first two training packages for 2003 so does that mean I will cover all the material in the listed exam matrix? Will it be complete?

I don't have the security package yet the info from the matrix suggests that I will cover the info in the first two packages.

The first training package does not have any labbooks, is this by design or are they available somewhere else?

Thanks,
Mike

I feel the Security package is a must to pass the exams. A good amount is covered in our Active Directory and Network Infrastructure trainings, but I do know there are areas on the exam that are only covered in our Security package. You could use your Transcender voucher after watching the first two sets to see if you pass the exams or need to study more.

We don't provide lab books with our trainings. Instead we have you follow along with our trainings and perform the actual tasks live.

From my understanding the MSCA is primarily a Windows 2003 Certification.

Your training is broken up into two parts, Server 2000 and Server 2003. In order for me to successful complete my MSCA do I need to cover both parts of your training, 2000/2003 server, or is only the 2003 part necessary?

Thanks.

I'm not sure how old of a product you have of ours but we no longer carry any Windows Server 2000 courses. Either way, the MCSE just focuses on Server '03 so that would be all you'll need to study for.

Thanks!

I purchased them last Christmas and all the DVD's have one half that is 2000 and the other 2003.
