From: Trust No One� on 23 Apr 2010 15:43 Hi all, My last venture into Microsoft certification was the NT4 MCSE many years ago. I work in IT with around 10 years experience in W2K and W2K3. After careful thought I've decided that I'd like to go for the Windows 2008 MCITP rather than the 2003 MCSE certification. Having both would be nice but beyond my budget! I've purchased the Microsoft self-paced training kit for the Server 2008 Enterprise Administration core requirements. I've also invested in the Windows 2008 resource kit. I do have an appropriate home network and can also use the test lab at work. Was after opinions as to whether the MSFT training kit + real world experience (albeit W2K3) is sufficient to pass the core exams. Has anyone been there done it? Thoughts appreciated. -- Peter <X-Files fan>

Hi Peter, While all of what you mentioned is good, you should have some real world experience with Server 2008. Barring 'real world' you should make sure to at least install and work with the products in a lab environment... build it out and know the products because despite many similarities there are also huge differences. Good luck!
