The Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) certifications
enable professionals to target specific technologies and distinguish
themselves by demonstrating in-depth knowledge and expertise in
their specialized technologies. More than a product certification,
the new Office Project 2007 certification family is designed
specifically to help project managers apply the leading project
management best practices and methodologies as established by the
Project Management Institute (PMI), resulting in better project
outcomes, greater efficiency, and optimal resource management.
The MCTS: Microsoft Office Project Server 2007 certification for
managing projects provides industry recognition to project managers
and other professionals who use Microsoft Office Project
Professional 2007 and Office Project Server 2007 to manage and
support projects in an enterprise environment. Candidates for this
credential may use Office Project 2007 or Office Project Server 2007
to manage project and non-project efforts, risks, issues, documents,
task progress, and timesheets. Candidates should be familiar with
the key project management concepts and terminology found in the
Project Management Institute’s “A Guide to the Project Management
Book of Knowledge” (PMBOK Guide).
