Validate
your skills with MCSE (Microsoft
Certified Systems Engineer)
Microsoft’s
Windows Server 2003 MCSE certification (Microsoft Certified
Systems Engineer) is for professionals who analyze the business
requirements and design and implement the infrastructure for
business solutions based on the Microsoft Windows® 2000 platform
and Microsoft Windows Server System™. The Windows Server 2003
MCSE emerged in the summer of 2003, three years after the
introduction of the Windows 2000 MCSE.
This MCSE certification does not retire but newer versions of it
are released every few years as Microsoft upgrades their core
server technologies. There are no specific prerequisites for the
MCSE, although Microsoft says: candidates should also have at
least one year of experience implementing and administering
network operating systems and desktop operating systems. As soon
as candidates pass their first qualifying exam for the MCSE
program, they achieve a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP)
certification. There is also a fair bit of overlap between the
MCSE and the
MCSE:Security certification.
