John, It is my experience from having taken the MCSE exams that if you have a large amount of hands-on work experience with the products... you can likely study on your own and pass the exams with little trouble. If you are only familiar with the software in a more general sense, you may want to take a bootcamp as they often give you a chance to get touchy feely with the software... and Microsoft has a habit of enjoying scenario questions that are made a lot easier if you can really picture how it would work.
I hope that helps... feel free to ask my anything else directly off-list. -- Jillian -----Original Message----- From: John Paul Ashenfelter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 8:22 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: OT: Quick MCSE Certification options > Folks, > > I'm the leading contractor candidate for a great (personal and professional) overseas gig , but the > foreign government requires a MCSE for technical workers in this position, > even though that has nothing to do with the job at hand.
