As you may noticed I am mostly engaged in Microsoft technology. So yesterday I set myself a new target on my way to becoming a software-architect. I want to certifie as a "Microsoft Certified Professional Developer: Enterprise Applications Developer" - one of the new certification tracks for .NET framework 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005.
To get the certifications I have to pass five exams:
Foundation
1) Exam 70-536 TS: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 - Application Development Foundation
This exam covers the topics I am just dealing with in the C# tutorials so I map this to my definition of things a software-developer must know (at least if he uses c#).
MCTS Credentials
The next part consists of three exams to get the Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) credentials:
2) Exam 70–528: TS: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 - Web-Based Client Development
3) Exam 70-526: TS: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 - Windows-Based Client Development
4) Exam 70–529: TS: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 - Distributed Application Development
This exams still cover topics for a software-developer.
MCPD: Enterprise Applications Developer Exam
This is the final exam and this exam covers topics of a software-engineer, therefore climbing the ladder up for becoming a software-architect.
5) Exam 70–549: PRO: Designing and Developing Enterprise Applications by Using the Microsoft .NET Framework
So this is the "achievements roadmap" which can be mapped to the C#-learning roadmap.
For now...let's go for 70-536!
