Is VC++ Certification available?

Hi All,
I think this question may be asked already, but i didnot find the
relevent answer to my question. Please any one tell, whether any
certifications are available for the C,C++ and VC++. After I read some of the
threads which are available in the site I understood that, there are no
certifications available now for these things. Is this is correct? If it is
not available we need to go for C#? I didnot know much about C#? can anyone
advice? Thanks in advance.

 

For the MCAD, the only options available are C# and VB .Net.
However, you can take the 70-526, 70-536, and 70-548 exams using Visual C++
- earning you both an MCTS and MCPD: Windows Development.
You cannot take the Web development exams in C++.
Unfortunately, for the new certifications, Microsoft doesn't keep track of
what language you took it in.
I would strongly urge you to learn C#. If you know C++, it shouldn't be that
hard of a transfer for you.
Good luck in your certification studies.

 

Hi Sir,
Thanks for your reply. But one thing I didnot know what are these
70-526, 70-536, and 70-548 exams .. and where can i get the information about
these? Please don't mind, that I may be asking the basic questions that all
knows. Kidly provide me the information..
Thanks,
Geetha Rani.

 

These exams are for the .Net Framework 2.0.
Information can be found at
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/exams/70-526.mspx,
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/exams/70-536.mspx, and
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/exams/70-548.mspx

Note that under "Code Languages" C++ is listed for these three. Also note
that these exams really do not test the languages themselves, but rather how
they interface with the .Net Framework.
