More Windows 7 Beta Exams

There are two new Windows 7 beta exams available for a short time. As with most beta tests, you won't find any official study material and likely won't have enough time to read it anyway. However, if you've been using and testing Windows 7 since it's beta days, it's worth a shot to take one of these exams.

The promo code will get you the test for free and you'll get credit for the real deal on your transcript if you pass. Seats and time slots are VERY limited, so don't waste time thinking about it too long.

71-686: PRO: Windows 7, Enterprise Desktop Administrator
Public Registration begins: September 14, 2009
Beta exam period runs: September 21, 2009 - October 16, 2009
Registration Promo Code: EDA7

When this exam is officially published (estimated date 11/16/09), this exam will become the official 70-686 exam, which is one of two exams needed for the the MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Adminstrator 7 certification.

71-685: PRO: Windows 7, Enterprise Desktop Support Technician
Public Registration begins: September 14, 2009
Beta exam period runs: September 14, 2009 - October 16, 2009
Registration Promo Code: EDST7

When this exam is published (also on 11/16/09) as 70-685, it will be credit toward the MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Support Technician 7 certification. This certification isn't listed yet in the MCITP Certification list but I suspect it will be paired with the 70-680 exam, much like the Enterprise Desktop Administrator 7 certification.
