70-541 – My first SharePoint certification

Today I have passed the 70-541 exam. It is about development in WSS and it is not difficult if you have the key concepts clear. The questions are 80% about the API (managinitems, lists and sites) and the rest is about deploying the solution.

I did not follow any guide. If you have developed with the WSS API you will have half exam passed.
I recommend you that read this and check all items.

Hey dude

Any idea regarding SharePoint Services 3.0 Configuring 71-631??? I do not have much experience in Application development. But administration i have knowledge.

Could you please say how to go around with that.

Àlex said...

ved,
in the configuring exam there are questions about general administration and some questions about "advanced" infraestructure of a SharePoint solution like ISA Server, MOM and NLB protocols.

Good luck!

Hi, I am interested in the 70-541 exam as well. This will be my first certification so I wanted to ask about the format of the exam. Is it all multiple questions or should I expect to answer questions in writing?

Àlex said...

This exam, like the most of the MS certification exams, is a multiple choice test.

Good luck!

Jeeez ! guys... ! can't you just do your own search and find out
1) requirement for the Admin exam 71-631 is on MS site, same site as Alex gave but for 71-631 instead of 70-541..
2) How to do API .. there are LOTS of blogs taling about this, giving tips, step by step and .. screenshot. Google and don't jsut throw a stone "hoping" someone will take you by the hand
3) how to register to an exam.. well again MS site gives all the link to .. Prometric and other sites.
Come guys ! don't be lazy,
thanks Alex and.. Well done for the certif !

Sigh! The fundamental purpose of any Microsoft (and any vendors) exam is to validate the "experience" of a person on the specific technology. If you have enough "real" experience (not just write a webpart that render "Hello World!"), you don't need any materials to study but your experience. However, passing such exam is no longer a valid proof any more because all the braindumps available has made it meaningness. When I hiring people, I no longer read about the candidates MC-Whatever cert. Used to be good ... but just for the first 3 years after NT3.5's days :(

Àlex said...

"Anonymous", I am partially agree with you. You don't need to study a lot if you have experience in the technology of the exam. But if you study and don't take any shortcut (TK for example) I am sure that you will learn something new or better ways to do it.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me hows Sharepoint market in current recession scenario..........means hows its future

Àlex said...

Neeraj,
Microsoft is going to launch the new version of the product (SharePoint 2010 and WSS 4.0). I cannot advance anything about the new features in this new version, but the Microsoft continues integrating the most of their server products in SharePoint platform.

Then, SharePoint will continue being a key platform in Microsoft environments.
