You are reading this blog - you are probably interested in Microsoft Certifications. Passing the exams is definitely not a piece of cake (I hope), but many of us are actually asking "where do I even start?" Well, there is no definite path to success, and everyone is different (I know you know). But there are some common things we all can do to get us started and keep us on track. Fellow MCP Michael Alligood wrote a great piece sharing his experience, and summarizing the seven steps to certification success (Thanks Michael!!!). Actually, it applied to more things than getting certified. :-) Check out the post.
What's your story about certification? Tips, thoughts, questions?

Getting started on the MS Certifications definately takes a little bit of research. I wrote a guide that contains most of my knowledge. Enjoy!
