Microsoft Is Requiring All Customer Facing Technical Microsoft Employees To Be Certified

Earlier this year, two Microsoft Vice Presidents, Kevin Turner and Gerri Elliott, made abold announcement at MGX this year. That all customer facing-technical employees will obtain a Microsoft Certification. In Kevin Turner’s own words: “By having everyone obtain certification, we send a message that we are serious about building a world-class sales organization”.

This new initiative is part of Kevin’s Word Class Selling plan and MSL has worked with them to create easy to understand mappings between the different job roles and our MCP programs and also implement effective self-studysolutions for their learning/preparation needs. This is a pretty important step in growing the internal and external appreciation and recognition of Microsoft’s new Generation of certifications.
