Become Microsoft Certified ...for free!


For anyone who is not aware, Microsoft offers a variety of training and certification preparation classes virtually. While I have yet to attend one that has not been useful in some way, many offer a voucher for attendance to take the associated certification exam for no cost.


You can always find options at Microsoft's event site, so if a particular session is full, you can search by the session titles below, and there will almost always be another chance.


I've gathered the current ones here, as a quick guide.
