Hello all,

I've recently achieved my MCITP: Server Administrator certification.

I'm interested in upgrading to MCSE: Server Administrator.

Which exam(s) do I need to take?

I find the information a bit confusing.

Thank you for your help.

P.S: If I'm MCITP Server Administrator, does that make me "MCSA 2008"?

There is no MCSE: Server Administrator certification however there is a MCSE: Server Infrastructure certification.

You will be able to upgrade your MCITP: Server Administrator certification to MCSA: Windows Server 2012 by doing exam 70-417 - Upgrading Your Skills to MCSA Windows Server 2012. Then you can earn the MCSE: Server Infrastructure certification 70-413 - Designing and Implementing a Server Infrastructure and 70-414 - Implementing an Advanced Server Infrastructure

Hi Exabyte,

Since Mr. Wharty has already answered the bulk of your question, there is only your P.S. left to be answered, and I will answer it.

Yes. If you are MCITP: Server Administrator, then you are also MCSA: Windows Server 2008.

Congratulations!

James
