Which Certifications are available for Dot Net Developer as per new Microsoft Certificates pattern

Ritesh Chandra 20

Hi, I have experience of ASP. Net, ASP.Net MVC and . NetCORE but There is no Microsoft Certificates available related to these skill sets now. It seems all .Net Developer related Microsoft Certificates are retired long back and replaced with Azure related Certificates. Can you Please suggest which new Certificates are for Dot Net Developer.

Hi, I am from India and many a times here Public/Govt Sector Entity asks for mandatory Dot Net Development Certification from Microsoft while applying for Job. Please suggest which Certificate will suffice this ask. As per my understanding AZ204 is upgraded version with Azure and .NetCore for dot net developer. If Microsoft can confirm on this then this will really help.

Thanks.

There is no dedicated certification for .NET developers, but you'll find its usage across a number of certifications, including most notably AZ-204 ( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/azure-developer/?practice-assessment-type=certification ) and AI-102 (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/azure-ai-engineer/?practice-assessment-type=certification )
