Microsoft Certification - not an IT Professional

Default not an IT Professional


Is it possible to take courses online (from the MS site) and advance through
the core exams while NOT being employed as an IT professional?

I have a good understanding of and interest in computers and Windows
2003/2008 but am presently outside of the IT employment environment.

I'd not want to begin this process to run into a wall mid-way through so is
there a barrier that would prevent me from completing this goal?

Thanks!

Hi M3Malone,

There is nothing that says that in order to learn IT you must be employed as
an IT Professional. I essentially learned how to do is while working in
security... I know others who were in retail.

The point is we all have to start somewhere... and taking the training is a
good way to get into the field.

Good luck!
