Microsoft Learning will always recommend taking training from a Microsoft Certified Trainer. Why? Well because we know they know their stuff . We require MCTs to be trained and certified on the topics that they train you on. In fact, most MCTs by far exceed those requirements.
Let s have a competition, GUESS:
1. How many exams, on average, have our MCTs taken throughout their careers?
2. How many of our 15.000 MCTs have taken more than 50 Microsoft Certification exams?
Take a guess and perhaps you will win a Microsoft Learning branded watch. I ll send it to the one that sends in the best estimate. Send in your response by Thursday April 2nd by commenting on this post, I ll announce the winner and the actual numbers on April 3rd.
You ll be amazed by the numbers!

Just wanted to mention that a lot of MCTs did the fast track upgrades(2000,2003,2008) and some others are Early Achievers for those tracks!!
I would say MCTs already did at least 30 exams.
