Microsoft Discontinues the MCA Certification

On May 1, 2010, about five years after the program's inception, Microsoft has discontinued the more vendor-neutral arms of its Microsoft Certified Architect (MCA) program in favor of focusing on the certifications more tightly linked to Microsoft technologies. According to Microsoft, the need for broad-based IT architect certification programs is now being met by other organizations, and thus Microsoft is removing itself from that particular arena. The MCA certifications that focus on Microsoft technologies will still be offered, and in fact several additional technology designations are in the works.

ITTS Launches ClassRoom on Demand


Methodology


ClassRoom on Demand is a mentored learning program which allows you to spread your Microsoft Technical training across multiple days because you are in control of your own personal schedule. Our technical ClassRoom on Demand is open 5 days a week from 8:30am-4pm, and is equipped with everything you need to learn, practice your skills and gain a Microsoft certification.

You ring ITTS, book your preferred days for training, then attend your own customised schedule.

No more worries about course dates not matching your work load!

One Day at a Time Training

Courses are broken up into one day blocks, so you can elect to:

Attend five days consecutively

Attend two days in one week and three days in another week

Or spread your training days over several weeks or months

The Choice is Yours...

Structured Training Program

ClassRoom on Demand is not a self-paced training program! Students are expected to progress through a course in the same duration as a normal training course (a 5-day course is completed over 5 days).

Students are guided through the training materials with a student guide. This student guide clearly shows which content should be studied in which order, so attendees will complete the courses in the same duration as advised by Microsoft.

Support Materials

Students Receive the Following Training Materials:

The Next Big Thing To Learn Is Cloud Computing

Cloud Computing - The Next Big Thing To Learn

"Whenever you roll out a new technology, there are always changes to how people perceive that technology, and the ramifications to employment that technology has. Cloud computing is disruptive, allowing fewer people to do stuff that an entire IT Shop used to do.

Gigaom this morning posts the idea that cloud computing is going to have a negative influence on the IT Job market, as much as the computer had on the typewriter market. The idea is sound; the question is how do people learn enough about cloud computing to remain competitive in the market place?
