I received this email yesterday. Another chance to maybe influence the future of OCS. This isn't developer related but I would love to see a MCITP exam for OCS. As a developer it helps to fully understand the whole picture. An exam will help prove your expertise.

Let me know what you think.

Microsoft Learning is exploring the possibility of creating a Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP) certification exam for Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007/2007 R2. In order to understand the market need and target audience for this certification exam, we are asking individuals who have purchased/deployed or are potential customers for OCS 2007/2007 R2 to complete a brief survey that will help us identify the different job roles that work with OCS across a wide variety of organizations. Our goal is to understand which job roles work with OCS and how those job roles are differentiated from other job roles within your organization.

To participate in this survey, please click the link below, and follow the instructions on the site. The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete and will close on September 15th, 2009.  Please note that you must complete the survey in a single session; once you have submitted your survey responses, you will not be able to access the survey again.

If you know of others who are using OCS or planning to purchase OCS for their organization who would like to participate in the survey, please forward this mail to them. 

Thanks for your participation. Your 10 minute investment will be invaluable to shaping the new certification exam, and ensuring that it is practical and useful globally!
