Microsoft-BI certification for SQL Server 2008.

  • Hi,

    I am planning to take Microsoft-BI certification in next month for SQL Server 2008.

    For this I need to take two examps 70-448(MCTS) & 70-452 (MCITP) for BI Developer.

    As exam 70-452 will expire in July 31, 2013, Is it worth to take up this exam. I don't want to take SQL Server 2012 exam so early because it's very new exam and very less material available for preparation.

    Please Advice.

    Thanks

    Saurabh

  • The 2012 exam has been out for about a year now, it's hardly a very new exam.

    yes I agree with you.

    Need your suggestion here.

    Do I need take up 2008 or it better to go for 2012.

    Also what is your thought on cercern I raised regarding 2008 exam in my first post.

    Up to you. Do you see a value in having a SQL 2008 certification based on what work you do or what you see in the job market where you are? If so, then write the 2008 cert.
