Hi All,
A lot of people have problems finding out information on Certification from the Microsoft Site.
I understand this if their first port of call is the Learning Manager (
http://learning.microsoft.com/Manager/catalog.aspx)
However I suggest you start at
Browse by Subject
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/certifications.mspxwhich gives a logical grouping of all certifications.
You can link through to individual exams and see their requirements.
For Visual Studio 2008
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/vstudio/2008/default.mspxThis includes a link to a video on Cert options.
Similarly for SQL 2008
SQL Server 2008 Certification Paths Main Learning LInk
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/sql/2008/default.mspx
Including a link to a brochure showing all SQL 2008 Cert options.

My tip for passing a cert is to book an exam, you cannot pass if you do not sit an exan.
Good Luck
