Introduction

MCPD Certification (in Windows Application) - using C# :


MCP -> MCTS -> MCPD

MCP = Microsoft Certified Professional
MCTS = Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist
MCPD = Microsoft Certified Professional Developer


The first exam is Exam 70-526 (Windows-Based Client Development).
Passing this first exam gets the MCP title.

Second exam will be Exam 70-536 (Application Development Foundation). Passing this second exam gets the MCTS title. This exam per se, does not carry MCP status, but 70-526 does. That is why 70-526 should be done first. Also, 70-526 is far easier than 70-536.

The last exam will be Exam 70-548 (Designing and Developing Windows-Based Applications Using the Microsoft .NET Framework). Passing this one, gets the MCPD title.
