  • Thanks Robert. I'm excited and look forward to join MCM group as well.

    My company is in Australia and probability to attend PASS in US is very low, haven't attended in the past and probably so in near future.

    I might self-sponsor myself some day.

  • Good morning everybody,

    yesterday I had my third try and...

    ALL WAS OK!

    I had just only one disconnected internet connection but after a few seconds I was able to work on.

    Now I can't hide and will see what the results bring.

    I have a 50% feeling and think I have to redo it.

    But it was an experience for me to see, what requirements will be part of the LAB.

    My luck - another's forum members bad luck.

    I was waiting for my registration and was aware of another test person who was a little bit nervous.

    I asked her what test she has to take and it was MCM Lab Test, too.

    She breaked after app. 1 hr because of technical issues (it was her second try!)

    Now she can retake it on Wednsday - I'm crossing fingers it will work than.

    Keep you informed when Bob send me the results.

    Best to all of you...

    Bye.

  • I just started to learn for MCM certificate. Videos are really inspiring, packed with information and insights, really refreshing.

    4 videos watched, 1000 to go 🙂

    I hope to be ready in about six months.

    Is it really true that the only test centers for MCM in Europe are in Berlin and London?

    That's not 15 mins away from my house, Gail you lucky bird. 🙂

    No. There's 2 in the UK that I know of, hence, seeing that I don't even live in that part of the world, there's probably a lot more than 2 just in the UK.

  • There are 2 in the UK and one in Berlin, Germany currently. Sadly, the number of test centers has only decreased. When I left Microsoft Learning, we were working on a project to bring the MCM exams to several hundred more facilities. I dont know what has become of that project.

    The official list of MCM test centers can be found here: https://www.prometric.com/en-us/clients/Microsoft/documents/MSMasterslistforonlineposting02012012v2.pdf

    There is one training center in Moscow, but I am not sure that it will be closer for you... Where are you from?

    Hi Robert,

    may I ask what are the requirements to become a MCM test center?

    In November I had a candidate from Amsterdam who joined the LAB - but with technical problems I had twice before 🙁
