Hi Ed,
Thanks for the update.
MCT may not be important to all forum users, moderators, owners, affiliation approvers
etc however it's very important to forums relating to Training and Certification such as these:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-AU/CertGeneral/threads
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-AU/sqlserversamples/threads
The people who use these forums understand what a MCT is and how this acronym represents someone who is approved to deliver official Microsoft courses.
It also represents someone who has proven their ability to deliver quality training in various areas of Microsoft technology, something which makes them trusted in the certification community and great forum contributors.
IMOA, MCT is more relevant than Partner or MSP as those titles can be gained by signing up to the relevant programs and doing nothing further whereas MCT’s are required to prove their training proficiency each year as well as undertake new and updated
training and certification to enable them to continue providing training as a MCT.
Given the above, I respectfully request that more consideration be given to adding MCT to the list of affiliations and that those who make the decision to add (or not add) affiliations make
some effort to understand what a MCT is and how MCT’s provide valuable services to the forum community.
