Taking a Microsoft Certified Application Specialist Exam
The Microsoft Office Specialist Study Guide - image 2

Desktop computing proficiency is becoming increasingly important in todays business world. As a result, when screening, hiring, and training employees, more employers are relying on the objectivity and consistency of technology certification to ensure the competence of their workforce. As an employee or job seeker, you can use technology certification to prove that you already have the skills you need to succeed, saving current and future employers the trouble and expense of training you.

The Microsoft Business Certification Program

The Microsoft Business Certification program is designed to assist employees in validating their Windows Vista skills and 2007 Microsoft Office program skills. The following certification paths are available:

  • A Microsoft Certified Application Specialist (MCAS) is an individual who has demonstrated profiency in Windows Vista or in a 2007 Office program by passing a certification exam in Windows Vista or in one or more of the 2007 Office programs, including Microsoft Office Word 2007, Microsoft Office Excel 2007, Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007, Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, and Microsoft Office Access 2007.

  • A Microsoft Certified Application Professional (MCAP) is an individual who has taken his or her knowledge of the 2007 Office system and of Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies to the next level and has demonstrated by passing a certification exam that he or she can use the collaborative power of the Office system to accomplish job functions such as Budget Analysis and Forecasting, or Content Management and Collaboration.

Selecting a Certification Path

When deciding which Microsoft Business Certification path you would like to pursue, you should assess the following:

  • The program and program version(s) with which you are familiar

  • The length of time you have used the program

  • Whether you have had formal or informal training in the use of that program

Candidates for MCAS-level certification are expected to successfully complete a wide range of standard business tasks, such as formatting a document or worksheet. Successful candidates generally have six or more months of experience with Windows Vista or the specific Office program, including either formal, instructor-led training or self-study using MCAS-approved books, guides, or interactive computer-based materials.

Candidates for MCAP-level certification are expected to successfully complete more complex, business-oriented tasks that involve using the advanced functionality of the combined 2007 Office suite of products, as well as SharePoint. Successful candidates generally have at least six months, and may have several years, of experience with the programs, including formal, instructor-led training or self-study using MCAP-approved materials.

Test-Taking Tips

Every MCAS and MCAP certification exam is developed from a set of exam skill standards that are derived from studies of how Windows Vista and the 2007 Office programs are used in the workplace. Because these skill standards dictate the scope of each exam, they provide critical information about how to prepare for certification. This book follows the structure of the published exam objectives; see for more information.

The MCAS certification exams for the 2007 Office system programs are performance-based and require you to complete business-related tasks in the program for which you are seeking certification. You might be told to adjust program settings or be presented with a file and told to do something specific with it. Your score on the exam reflects how well you perform the requested tasks.

Here is some helpful information about taking the exam:

  • Keep track of the time. You have 50 minutes to complete the exam. Your exam time does not officially begin until after you finish reading the instructions provided at the beginning of the exam. During the exam, the amount of time remaining is shown at the bottom of the exam interface. You cant pause the exam after you start it.

  • Pace yourself. At the beginning of the exam, you will be told how many questions are included in the exam. Some questions will require that you complete more than one task. During the exam, the number of completed and remaining questions is shown at the bottom of the exam interface.

  • Read the exam instructions carefully before beginning. Follow all the instructions provided in each question completely and accurately.

  • Enter requested information as it appears in the instructions, but without duplicating the formatting unless you are specifically instructed otherwise. For example, the text and values you are asked to enter might appear in the instructions in bold and underlined ( text ), but you should enter the information without applying these formats.

  • Close all dialog boxes before proceeding to the next exam question unless you are specifically instructed otherwise.

  • Dont close task panes before proceeding to the next exam question unless you are specifically instructed otherwise.

  • If you are asked to print a document, worksheet, chart, report, or slide, perform the task, but be aware that nothing will actually be printed.

  • Dont worry about extra keystrokes or mouse clicks. Your work is scored based on its result, not on the method you use to achieve that result (unless a specific method is indicated in the instructions).
