Microsoft Announces New Benefits for Global Microsoft Certified Professional Community

New benefits feature increased access to an internal knowledge base for technical troubleshooting and worldwide community networking.

REDMOND, Wash., Nov. 26, 2007 — Microsoft announces that its community of 2.2 million Microsoft Certified Professionals (MCPs) will now receive new benefits that will help them successfully deploy
and support new technologies through increased access to internal Microsoft resources and networking with their peers. The new MCP benefits are being introduced as Microsoft is gearing up to launch Windows Server 2008 and customers are already taking advantage of the readiness resources available. ”As new technology is released, Microsoft is investing in unique benefits for MCPs that provide ongoing value that will help them improve their performance on the job while distinguishing themselves from their peers,” says Lutz Ziob, general manager of Microsoft Learning.

    Is this the same info that was announced a few weeks ago on the MCP Member website?

    Certainly helmer, this is the same information, albeit with a divergence in focus.   Whereas the previous announcements were focused on the MCP community, this release is focued on making the information about the changes more broadly availible to audiences which do not actively check back on MCP channels very often.
