    Hi,

    I am having 4 years experience in asp.net 1.1, asp.net 2.0 and now I am working with asp.net 4.0 but unfortunately not using asp.net 4.0 features for e.g I’m still using datagrid instead of GridView L  And I am not updated with new Microsoft technologies like MVC , Silverlight , WPF , WCF and LINQ  L

     

    I want to upgrade my dot net technology and I want to do MCTS in visual studio 2010.

    Could you please let me know is doing MCTS in visual studio 2010 my correct decision?

    let me know about MCTS - visual studio 2010 – examinations papers?

    How many exams I need to clear?

    What is the Fee for every exam?

     

     

    Thank you in advance

    Best Regards

    Deepak sharma

    Hi Deepak,

    Yes all those exams exist and give MCTS certification,  70-515 is the exam which is specifically for the web and tests mainly traditional asp.net and also MVC.

    So you only need to take 70-515 to become MCTS: .NET Framework 4, Web Applications.

    If you wish to become MCPD Web Developer 4 then you would require 70-513 and 70-516 as well as the MCPD exam 70-519.

    70-511 is Windows only (covering WPF and traditional windows model) there is no reason to take this if you are a web only developer.

    If you want to get a certification in Silverlight then you could take 70-506 it is a stand alone qualification.

    The natural path for a web developer would be to get 70-515 then 70-716 to show ADO.Net skills then 70-513 for WCF skills.  Followed by attaining MCPD.

    Hope this helps.

    Kind Regards,

    Hi Deepak,

    Your experience is mainly in asp.net so MCTS Web Application Development with Framework 4.0 seems a good choice.

    There is only one exam required 70-515

    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/exam.aspx?ID=70-515&locale=en-us

    The Fee is dependent on your region and is going up on the 1st of July.

    Go to http://www.prometric.com for current price and

    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/certification/cert-pricing-FAQ.aspx for new price.
