Congrats on passing. This is a question that is gigantic, there are so
many areas to specialize, but it mainly depends on what aspects of
Windows you like to work on.
With the EA cert, the focus is on architectural concepts of elements
like Windows Server, DNS, DHCP, IPSec, Active Directory, Terminal
Services, File and Print services, and general administration.
I got my EA cert and I like to work with SCOM, Exchange, SQL Server, and
am slowly working my way to understanding Windows Internals and some of
the larger and more complex topics with administration and development
like WMI, COM, and .Net.
The two biggest questions questions that will probably determine where
to go from here are:
- What are your career goals?
- What do you like to do?
