FREE MCSE Private Cloud Exam Study Guide for Exam 70-246
UPDATE: New Resources Included for System Center 2012 SP1
This month, I spent a fair amount of time preparing for the new Microsoft Private Cloud Certification Exam 70-246, Monitoring and Operating a Private Cloud with System Center 2012 and I saved links to all the study resources that I used to study and pass this exam as a step-by-step Exam Study Guide for anyone else who may be interested in targeting this exam.
Exam 70-246 is the final exam needed to complete the MCSE Private Cloud certification track. The complete requirements for the MCSE Private Cloud track include:
- Achieve MCSA:Windows Server 2008 or MCSA:Windows Server 2012
- If you were previously certified as an MCITP on Windows Server 2008, you may be closer than you realize to achieving this certification requirement! MCITP’s were grandfathered into the MCSA program automatically when the new MCSA program was introduced earlier this year. Check your MCP Transcript at https://www.microsoft.com/mcp to confirm.
- Successfully pass Exam 70-247 - Configuring and Deploying a Private Cloud with System Center 2012
- Successfully pass Exam 70-246 - That’s the exam targeted by this study guide!
