How to get your MCSE Certificate on Windows Server 2003

• Networking: MCSAs on Windows Server 2003 must prove their skills on all four core network exams, including Exams 70-293 and 70-294.

• Client: If the candidate has already taken either Exam 70-210 or 70-270, no further action is required.

• Design: MCSAs on Windows Server 2003 were not required to prove design skills, so instead they must prove their skills by passing either a Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 design exam. If the candidate has already taken a Windows 2000 design exam, no additional action is required.

• Elective: Elective exams are required so that candidates prove technical breadth, interoperability skills, or additional technical depth; therefore, one elective exam is required.
